My biggest challenge has been the assignments and preparing for them. However, through LJMU’s study skills I have found a lot of support. University has changed me massively. I am more independent, organised and resilient, as a student nurse you have to be. In the future I would like to think I will be a cancer specialist nurse. LJMU is giving me the experience and guidance to make this happen.
