Join us for a live talk with Kirsti, a Senior Development Nurse at the Health & Care Academy, Education & Development at the Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.
In this session, Kirsti will explore what it means to be a mental health nurse, discussing the essential skills and knowledge required for the role, as well as the diverse settings in which mental health nurses work. She will also provide insights into the various career paths and entry routes into the profession, helping you understand where a career in mental health nursing could take you.
Additionally, Kirsti will share her personal career journey, offering a firsthand perspective on working with patients, carers, and professionals, as well as her own academic development. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain valuable knowledge and inspiration for anyone considering a future in mental health nursing.
This live talk, aimed at secondary aged students (most suitable for KS3-5), will be informative and engaging, and there will be the opportunity to ask questions afterwards.
*This virtual secondary school assembly talk will take place using MS Teams Live. The platform has safeguarding built-in to make it a safe online environment, especially for young people, including no webcams or microphones and a live Q&A function which is fully moderated.
