Coping with anxiety: Supervisors and trainees

EyePod: The optometry podcast

In the second part of our anxiety podcast, Ruth Bennett, Deputy Lead Assessor on the Scheme for Registration, Dave Burke, Mental Health First Aid Instructor, and Neil Constantine-Smith, an optometrist with over 30 years' experience, answer questions from supervisors and trainees on the Scheme for Registration.

They answer questions on managing your work/life balance, how to prepare for exams, and how to deal with disappointment if things don't go your way.
