Waiting – how things have changed
Things haven’t gone to plan for my extended placement! 7th April I got the ‘thank you’ email for joining the trust for the extended placement, then a followup email on 9th April with a start date of 16th April for online induction and either 20th or 27th April to start on the wards. I had…
