Happy #OverseasNHSWorkersDay. Grateful for the journey it's been for me as an overseas NHS worker all the way from Uganda. Plenty of opportunities, challenges, learning and growth. Celebrating all fellow overseas NHS worker colleagues - AHPs, nurses, doctors and those in other professions. I had the privilege of sharing my career journey on the @ICCPOD hosted by @Sam_Elliott82. This was Episode 10 of 10 but please Keep an eye out for Season 2! @stayandthrive @NHSEngland @NHSEmployers @HCTNHS @NHSEastEngland @WeAHPs @EagleAHPs @UDAHP_UK @cspbame @thecsp @thecspstudents A more detailed post about today here: linkedin.com/feed/update/urn… A 'twitter thread' I made in 2023 that forms part of my career journey as an overseas NHS worker. x.com/JustineMusiime/status/… youtube.com/watch?v=T_VnUUJ4…
Some time in September 2022, I successfully interviewed for a Band 8 role. It was a secondment. I was excited. I've seen or heard of colleagues who've gone for secondments. It happens a lot in the NHS, its straightforward. It tends to happen relatively swiftly.
