Carolyn receives QNIS award
A current postgraduate student in Nursing Studies received an award from the Queens Nursing Institute Scotland (QNIS). Carolyn is currently studying the Postgraduate Certificate in Managing Health and Social Care.
On the 10th November 1980 I started studying Nursing at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. Exactly 36 years later on the 10th November 2016 I was nominated by Edinburgh University to receive the Queens Nursing Institute Scotland Academic Award for ‘promoting excellence in community nursing’.
As a true ‘lifelong learner’, I have experienced the evolution of nurse education from on the job hospital based teaching to degree level learning. At this later stage in my career, I am embracing the opportunity to study with, and learn from, fellow Nurses from across the world and generations. Thank you to the Tutors and my fellow Students.
Well Done Carolyn!
