Douglas's Story
An Inverness local, Douglas was attracted to studying at °®Âþµº because the Inverness campus allowed him to live at home and benefit from undertaking placements in various locations across the Highlands.
He was inspired to study nursing through a long-held passion for caring and a desire to follow the example of his mum who was a staff nurse.
Douglas said: ¡°Throughout my three years studying at °®Âþµº, I found the teaching staff very easy to talk to and very helpful. At times I found the course very challenging, particularly the essay writing, but the staff were always available to provide advice and support.
¡°If I had to describe my time at °®Âþµº in just three words then those would have to be: challenging, fun, rewarding.¡±
Douglas has already taken the next steps on his journey, having started a job as a Theatre Nurse at a local hospital.
