ADVISE FOR THE NEWLY GRADUATE NURSES It's advisable for those nurses that just graduated as a registered nurse to further in their education. Don't be stagnant and be a "local champion" 😂 when your mates are already doing their post basic nursing or BNSc even both, if you have the opportunity and you have the strength and capacity to do so. There are school that you can start your BNSc and earn your degree within few years 😁 1. University of Abuja 2. Delta State University, Delta state. 3. University of Benin, Edo state. 5. LAUTECH, Ogbomoso, Oyo state. 6. OAU, Ile-Ife, Osun state. These and many other schools including NOUN (National Open University) offers open and distance learning (ODL), which will make schooling easier for you all. #nursefatodu

𝘼𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖 𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙨𝙚𝙩 𝙎𝙝𝙞𝙛𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙉𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜: 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙅𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙚𝙮 𝘽𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙨 A few days ago, I had the privilege of speaking at an inspiring online event alongside some of the best nurses in Cameroon, including Mboshi Kendriya OROCK STEVO MFORNJOCK Ndasi Noubissi Maxel, MMS,BNS,SRN,HND Nyingsha Standley Jania Ney Yosimbom The event centered on the vital 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗻𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀 and providing actionable tips for success. While my initial topic was aligned with these themes, I chose to take a different path. I aimed to challenge and transform the mindset of our future nurses. Too often, nursing is perceived merely as bedside care or a stepping stone for overseas opportunities. Many see it as monotonous, lacking excitement or potential. I seized this opportunity to engage the audience in a crucial mindset shift. I emphasized that nursing is far more than a conventional profession. It's a dynamic field ripe with opportunities in technology, research, specialized care (for children or adults), and even politics. Nursing can be a gateway to fulfilling and diverse career paths, far from boring! By expanding their horizons and showcasing the multifaceted nature of nursing, I aimed to inspire a new generation of nurses to embrace the full potential of their careers. As we look ahead, I ask: How can we further innovate and expand the impact of nursing in our communities? Share your thoughts and join the conversation!

2024 taught me that true healing is an art that flows beyond hospital walls. This year transformed me from a nursing student into a Registered Nurse and Public Health Nurse, while showing me that the most powerful medicine often comes from unexpected places - like art, creativity, and human connection. Some moments that made my heart sing in 2024: - Becoming a Registered Nurse and Public Health Nurse (finally wearing that cap with pride! 🎓) - Building a community of 2,500+ healthcare professionals passionate about holistic healing - Being appointed as Nigeria's Country Representative for An Extra M - Receiving Arts in Medicine Professional certification - Leading soft skills training for 100+ nursing students while building a vibrant community of 400+ nurses Three posts that captured our journey toward more human-centered healthcare: "The System, Not You" - On supporting healthcare providers through systemic change rather than just preaching resilience "You're trying your best. Don't beat yourself up. It's not you, it's the system." https://lnkd.in/dgwi7TT7 "A Call for Self-Care in Nursing" - Because we can't pour from an empty cup "Self-care is not selfish. Rest replenishes your soul." https://lnkd.in/dz3et28B "I'm Now a Registered Nurse!" - The moment that proved dreams don't have deadlines "With determination and audacity, you can achieve anything you set your mind to." https://lnkd.in/ds99Njfq Looking ahead to 2025: I'm focused on expanding the integration of arts in healthcare while mentoring the next generation of nurses through An Extra M. Together, we'll create more holistic, human-centered approaches to healing. To every healthcare professional feeling torn between protocols and patients' deeper needs: Your instinct to heal through connection is not wrong. Sometimes the most powerful medicine is simply being present, being creative, being human. What's one way you've seen art or creativity make a difference in healthcare? #nursing #healthcare #artsinhealth #linkedinfam #LinkedInRewind

The nursing profession in Nigeria is a vital component of the healthcare system, providing essential services and care across various medical settings. However, the sector faces several challenges, including limited resources, inadequate training facilities, and the migration of skilled nurses to more developed countries in search of better opportunities. This feature story explores these pathways that Nigerians can take to become lucrative nurses in the United States. https://lnkd.in/dkGgf8Ym

ELEVATING THE NURSING PROFESSION IN NIGERIA: KEY FACTS AND CAREER ADVICE _Important Facts for Nigerian Nurses!_ As a nurse in Nigeria, here are some key facts to keep in mind: MBBS is a degree certification, not equivalent to a PhD. To become a Chief Nursing Officer (CNO) or Assistant Director of Nursing Services (ADNS) in some institutions, a BNSc degree is required. As a student nurse, having an HND qualification may limit your opportunities compared to a BNSc degree. Pursuing higher education (MSc and PhD) can open up greater opportunities in academics. Certain nursing specialties like anaesthetics, peri-operative, mental health, and ICU are in high demand. Consider exploring alternative income streams outside of nursing. Prioritize personal growth and development over immediate financial gain. Don't miss out on opportunities - remember, "japa" (seizing opportunities) is key! #NigerianNurses #NursingCareer #CareerAdvice #NursingEducation #ProfessionalGrowth #OpportunitySeizing #JapaVibes #NursingSpecialties #HealthcareCareer #NigeriaHealthcare #NursingMatters #CareerDevelopment

This will be my first thoughts on LinkedIn, May be comprehensive but I tell u it’s my heart pouring tremendously about the profession and hoping it encourages another who reads this… ### Pursuing Nursing and a Degree in Nigeria: Challenges and Future Gains Embarking on a journey in nursing and obtaining a degree in Nigeria is a path marked by significant challenges, but the potential future gains are immensely rewarding. As someone deeply involved in the nursing profession, I'd like to share insights into this journey, highlighting both the obstacles and the promising opportunities that lie ahead. #### The Challenges **1. Resource Constraints:** One of the most significant hurdles is the lack of adequate resources. Many nursing schools and healthcare facilities face shortages in essential equipment, supplies, and educational materials. This scarcity often hampers the quality of education and training that aspiring nurses receive. **2. Financial Barriers:** Pursuing a nursing degree can be financially demanding. Tuition fees, cost of textbooks, and other educational expenses can be prohibitive for many students. Additionally, balancing part-time work with rigorous academic schedules adds to the financial strain. **3. Limited Clinical Exposure:** Gaining practical experience is crucial for nursing students. However, overcrowded hospitals and limited clinical placements can restrict hands-on learning opportunities, affecting the competency and confidence of future nurses. **4. Regulatory and Administrative Challenges:** Navigating the regulatory landscape can be daunting. From securing necessary accreditations to dealing with administrative inefficiencies, students and educators often face bureaucratic obstacles that slow down progress. **5. Workload and Stress:** The demanding nature of nursing studies, combined with clinical duties, often leads to high levels of stress and burnout. Maintaining a balance between academic responsibilities and personal well-being is a constant challenge. Looking Ahead While the path to becoming a nurse and earning a degree in Nigeria is fraught with challenges, the future gains are undoubtedly worth the effort. The healthcare landscape is evolving, and nurses are at the forefront of this transformation. By investing in education, advocating for better resources, and supporting each other, we can overcome these obstacles and build a brighter future for nursing in Nigeria. To all current and aspiring nurses, remember that every step you take in this journey contributes to a healthier and stronger society. Stay resilient, stay passionate, and keep pushing forward. The world needs your dedication and care now more than ever. Let's continue to uplift and support each other as we navigate this rewarding profession. Together, we can achieve greatness and make a lasting impact on the healthcare system in Nigeria and beyond.
