Why did you choose dentistry originally?
After leaving sixth form, I wasn’t 100 per cent sure about what I wanted to do long term; however, I knew I wanted something that was healthcare related, and I wanted a busy and active role. I did some research after finishing my A levels and found a local college (Matthew Boulton) that ran the dental nurse apprenticeship course. I looked into the role of a dental nurse and thought it was something I could do. I had an interview with the college and then a few different dental practices.
How long were you qualified?
I completed my apprenticeship in March 2020 but due to the pandemic it was delayed until December 2020, when I registered with the GDC. So, I was qualified and GDC registered for about two months before starting the adult nursing course.
