Macie Woods

Apprentice Dental Nurse

​

​

There once was a girl called Macie Woods,
Who worked in a dental practice, doing all that she could.
Petite and blonde, with a quiet little smile,
She's been here six years… but still doesn't know us all by name!

​

She's gentle and shy, never one to shout,
You'd barely hear a whisper if she ever spoke out.
But don't be deceived by her innocent face,
She's a talented nurse who knows her place!

​

She's mastered the suction, the trays and the kit,
Knows every procedure and where things all sit.
Six years of experience, she's come such a way,
But ask her who's working? That's a different day!

​

"Who's that?" we ask, as a colleague walks past,
"I'm not sure," says Macie – and it's not the first time, or last!
Six years we've worked together, through thick and thin,
Yet she's still introducing us like we've just walked in!

​

She'll smile and she'll nod, pretending she knows,
While desperately hoping nobody asks who it was!
She's mastered dentistry, she's brilliant and bright,
But remembering names? Well, that's a work in progress, right?

​

So here's to our Macie, our blonde little star,
Who's quietly brilliant, wherever we are.
We wouldn't change her, not even a bit,
Though six years on, we'd quite like her to know who she's working with!

​

So raise a glass to Macie Woods,

Six years employed, six years of skill,
Still doesn't know who's who… but she's lovely still!
