which included slow brain<br />

development and learning disabilities.<br />

“Although there was no cure for<br />

cerebral palsy, I learnt that there were<br />

treatments available to help people<br />

with the condition be as active and<br />

independent as possible, which is what<br />

I wanted for my niece,” shares<br />

Kayode. He was also happy to learn<br />

that the NHS offered a team of<br />

healthcare professionals to come up<br />

with a treatment plan that would meet<br />

the child’s individual needs.<br />

Inspired by what he had learnt and<br />

motivated by what he could achieve,<br />

Kayode decided to join the NHS as a<br />

Learning and Disability Nurse. “It was<br />

a drastic change in terms of roles but<br />

at the heart of it, they both involve<br />

trust, diligence and care,” says<br />

Kayode. This sense of responsibility<br />

was not lost on Kayode and his<br />

passionate and caring nature is what<br />

allowed him to easily make the<br />

transition. “Before people trusted me<br />

with their money and now they trust<br />

me with their lives!” he exclaims.<br />

Kayode soon embarked on a threeyear<br />

Nursing degree, which included<br />

a placement at Guy’s and St Thomas’<br />

NHS Foundation Trust. He recently<br />

graduated in 2021 and is now a<br />

qualified Learning and Disability<br />

Nurse at Oxleas NHS Trust in<br />

Dartford. In his new role, Kayode<br />

works closely with people with<br />

learning disabilities and mental health<br />

issues. His day to day responsibilities<br />

involve the administration of<br />

medication, physiotherapy, physical<br />

and mental health treatment, and<br />

liaising with other multidisciplinary<br />

team members, including social<br />

workers, clinicians and psychologists -<br />

depending on his patient’s needs.<br />

“My role is extremely rewarding.<br />

Everyday I am helping to transform<br />

someone’s life - little by little. It’s so<br />

satisfying to watch people grow and<br />

progress and to know that you played<br />

an important part in their recovery -<br />

nothing can compare to it,” says<br />

Kayode.<br />

During COVID-19, Kayode helped<br />

to administer vaccines for people with<br />

learning disabilities. One particular<br />

patient had a phobia of needles and<br />

was terrified to get the jab. But<br />

Kayode was able to calm him down<br />

using relaxation techniques and other<br />

coping methods that helped to reduce<br />

the patient’s anxiety. He was able to<br />

successfully administer the jab;<br />

ensuring the patient and his family<br />

were protected during the pandemic.<br />

Kayode describes working for the<br />

NHS as a great privilege and<br />

encourages others to apply for the<br />

range of roles that are available. “If<br />

your goal is to create a positive impact<br />

on the lives of real people and you<br />

want to contribute your skills to<br />

making people’s lives better - then the<br />

NHS is the place for you,” says<br />

Kayode.<br />

Kayode also enjoys the work-life<br />

balance that comes with the job. “My<br />

work offers me enough flexibility to<br />

spend quality time with my family,”<br />

he shares. Kayode and his family love<br />

travelling, learning about new cultures<br />

and meeting new people. “My goal is<br />

to travel the whole world, though that<br />

might need to wait until I retire!”<br />

laughs Kayode.<br />

<strong>The</strong> COVID-19 pandemic has<br />

shown, now more than ever, that the<br />

future of England’s health and social<br />

care system relies on its people. Now<br />

in its fourth year, the ‘We are the NHS’<br />

campaign is back to champion the<br />

extraordinary work of nurses, AHPs,<br />

and healthcare support workers to<br />

inspire a new cohort to consider a<br />

career in the health service and be part<br />

of the NHS’s future. To find out more<br />
