So, sefydliadau yw'r ystafell. As we all know, it goes from a level 4 to a level 5 criteria, marking criteria, and this is just more detail basically. You need to be critically analysing all of the time, whether it's physiology, whether it's exams, whether it's assignments, all of that. You need to be not just describing things, you need to be analysing things, so you need to be picking things apart, looking at the pros and cons of everything. You need to have like a real critical discussion, like a little debate basically in your assignments, and that's just going to take you up to a level 5 and 6. Also, your references all need to be evidence-based, so everything you say has to be evidence-based. It's going to be a lot more research-based, so go out there, look for studies and all of the evidence that says this is what you're saying. You have to back up what you're saying with evidence, and this is because, as nurses, this is what we have to do. We have to use the best evidence out there that says this works, this is why it works, these are the studies that have said it works, and this is why we do what we do, and that's what we need to show in your assignments basically, if that makes sense. However, I do feel like there's a bit of a gap between first year and second year with the level 4 and level 5 jump, because I don't remember in first year towards the end of first year ever really being sort of eased into level 5 marking criteria, there was no real explanation of it, but as you go into second year, they do explain that, well they did with us anyway, they sort of explain that, they explain the criteria, the marking criteria is visually online for us as well, so we know what they're marking and how to get those A stars, we just need to put it into practice. But just to prepare you for second year, I would just google, I would YouTube critical analysis how to do that properly in assignments, if I can find the links, I will post them below in the details, have a look at that, and hopefully they'll help you with that, just make sure all of your references are more research based journals, forget websites and things like that. Level 5, level 6 marking criteria is that step up, so we need to be using evidence, research, we need to be going on Cochrane Library, Sinal, Summon, whatever you use to find your evidence based practice and research papers, if you have to go on Google Scholar as well they always advise not to, but actually sometimes you find a really good paper sometimes on Google Scholar, but then go through the link to find the original source, not just Google Scholar, so then when you're referencing it, you're referencing it from the journal or the Cochrane Library or something, the proper place they originated from rather than put in Google Scholar 2019, don't do that, just yeah have a look at that. Same with your physiology, so your physiology, you want to know why everything's going on in the body, so when someone's got asthma why can't they breathe, why they're having that wheezy sound, you want to rationalise everything and you want to be thinking about your nursing interventions and monitoring, so if you have a patient in front of you that has asthma, what are you going to do and why, why would you give salbutamol, why would you give oxygen, why would you not give oxygen, what sort of mask would you use, what does the evidence say on that, what does the nice guidelines say, you want to rationalise everything because when you're practising as a nurse you need to be confident that you can rationalise and justify the interventions you're given to your patient to save their life and not put them at harm and that's what it's all about, keeping your patient safe, alive and getting them better again, so you want to do that in, I know for our exams this is what it's all about, whether at other universities they do different things, I'm not 100% sure what other universities do but for us we have case study patients like I've talked about in previous vlogs and we need to rationalise and justify everything why we're doing it and actually what's physically going on in the body with the cells, the mucus, all of that, the goblet cells producing the mucus, we need to know every single detail why it's happening, what the body responses and how other nurses are going to fix it and why the rationalising asian and the justification of that and that is up level five six, that's basically it, so I think my tips for preparing for second year is like I said look up critical analysis if you don't know already and you're not used to it, have a look, how to do it, get used to doing it, look at different research papers as well and see if you can work out what critical analysis is just from reading theirs, I would go on database searching so I'd go on Cochrane Library, get your head around Cochrane Library if you've never used it before, get your head around what an actual research paper looks like so you'll have your abstract, you'll have your methods section, you'll have your results section, it's like a proper study that's physically been done in one way or another, I would also look at maybe some more physiology in depth, just top up your knowledge with the physiology and keep on top of it because sometimes when you haven't been at uni for a while, when you've had a break, you're doing other things and you sort of forget some things and if you don't keep on top of it you sort of feel like you've took a step back a little bit sometimes so just keep it on top of the physiology as well and that's not just for second year, that's for third year as well, keep on top of the physiology so when you go back into it and you've got the exam coming up it doesn't seem as much as a shock but my biggest tip of all which I've said before and I say regularly to people, organisation, you have to be organised for second year, second year for me is the heaviest year for workload, it is all given to you so you're going to want to make sure you're on top of everything as soon as you have something launched, a module launched, you've got your assignment brief, you've got your assignment guide, look at it and start it, take a look at it, start something on it, start researching around the topic that your assignment's on, get ahead of yourself even before they've started teaching you because at least if you get ahead of yourself and you start you're a bit more of a head then and then as they're teaching it you can sort of adjust and tweak things as you go and that's just I think for me that's how I deal with things, that's how I do it, it's far better to be organised and on top of things and not falling behind and doing things last minute but I know some people can't do that, I know a lot of you are lastminute.com and will literally just knock out assignments the night before, I bow to you, I don't know how you do it, I can't do it, I wish I could do it but I can't, I do like to get it done out of the way and I don't stress about it but if you are that person that's fine do what you do best but do you know what everything is hard until you know how to do it, does that make sense? So something is hard because it's unfamiliar to you, you don't know it, you've never heard of let's just say a goblet cell before, you don't know what it is, you don't know what it does and then you struggle with it, you find it challenging but actually it's not really a challenge it's just that you don't know it yet and then when you revise it and you do it it gets easier, it gets better, you understand it and then you're like ah it wasn't such a challenge after all I do know this because now I've revised and learnt it and that's just like life if you want to play a guitar it's really hard and you haven't got a clue how to play a guitar I'm talking about myself now I don't know how to play a guitar but if I wanted to go out and play the guitar I would YouTube it, I would get lessons and I would slowly build up until I can actually play a chord and then I will strum a song or a tune or something and I will eventually know how to play the guitar but at the start it'd be hard, it'd be challenging because I don't know it yet, it's unfamiliar and that is just life in general so I think what I'm trying to say is exams are only hard if you don't know it but if you put the work in, if you put the grafting, if you revise it you will know it so when you get the question you're like I know this tick done mark and that's what it's all about the more you put in the more you put into this degree the more hard work you put in the more revision you do you're going to smash it and it's not easy it is tough it's really hard to balance life and workloads and everything but once you get into a rhythm and a flow of doing things and you put the work in you're going to see those results and it's going to be amazing and I'm going to say along with organization prioritisation so know your deadlines know what's due in first and do that first before anything else sometimes it's really hard to do that I fully understand that because lately I've been all over my dissertation which isn't due till October and my poster presentation got left behind a little bit which is due in in September so now I've sort of swapped them around and now I'm on my poster presentation and my dissertation's taken a step back so prioritize everything prioritize your workload organize it dedicate so many hours in the day to each thing if you want just come up with your own way of doing things and you'll be fine you stop stressing you'll be fine you're going to be amazing second year isn't that bad it was tough the workload was tough it was stressful but you know what I got through it just like every other student has got through it we've all passed there are students that unfortunately didn't pass first time they smashed it the next time and that's okay if you don't pass you don't pass at least you will have all of the feedback you'll have the support they're put in place to smash it next time and it's going to be amazing so please don't panic about that it does happen it's not uncommon for people to not pass things and it's okay it doesn't mean that you're a bad nurse it doesn't mean that you're going to be rubbish it doesn't mean that you're going to fail the whole degree it just means that you need to take on the feedback and smash it next time I've always been so focused on getting my first now I've taken a step back I don't care I'm not going to get my first now and that's okay because I know out there on practice I've been smashing it my placements I've been smashing my placements I know that I've saved lives I know that I've recognised deteriorating patients and I know I'm going to be a safe nurse and hopefully an amazing mentor to somebody one day hopefully I'm so excited for that so please don't please don't just don't erase it get it over with that's it but yes sidetracks anyway overall second year is amazing second year was genuinely my favourite year out of all of these years because I loved all of the modules ours was community based which you all know I am a community nurse through and through I love it so I was really happy to get that and it was up a step so it was thinking critically and it was thinking about rationalising my own decisions my nursing decisions which I loved I love backing up things with evidence it's amazing and I really genuinely loved second year as hard as it was as tough as it was as much as the workload went up the level went up it was fine it I found it really good but I know not everybody is in this boat and I know a lot of students hate second year a lot of students really struggle second year I know a lot of students that have failed mainly second year but that doesn't mean that you are going to be that person that doesn't mean that you're going to hate second year it doesn't mean that you're going to struggle second year as long as you're organised and go into second year with a really positive mind positive attitude don't think about the negatives take on each day manage things bite size chunk by chunk you're going to be amazing please don't worry and if you do find yourself worrying if you do find yourself stressed if you're crying if you're having a mental breakdown if you're about to quit come and talk to me message me please inbox me I'm there for you I'm going to tell you how amazing you are you can blim and do this and I'm going to get you going again so please do not even think about ever quitting anything until you've spoken to me because I'm going to get you back on there and you're going to be fine and you're going to be an amazing nurse and I think that's it I can't think of anything else any advice I can really give for second year just the workload does go up and be organised but apart from that there's not much else you can do to prepare for second year other than what I've said anyone else is in third year now or at the end of second year has any advice tips anything please please please comment below for other people let us know your experience as well because not we don't all have the same experiences throughout university everybody is different so it'd be really nice to see the different opinions and comments and things with second year but it's really nice to give helpful advice and tips for other people that might be struggling and to tell your story as well to show that they're not in this alone and that we all do go through that so yeah but that is it from me for today I shall see you next week and I hope you have an amazing day amazing week and keep smiling
