That's okay :smile: that sounds good! Sounds like you've got a passion for it so just go for it! Throughout the three years you are supernumerary on placement, so in first year you are largely observing, and mentors are understanding of the fact you know nothing and generally take the time to teach you and slowly build up your confidence. Towards the end of second year and third year you are taking your own patients under direct supervision, but your confidence is built up by this point. You'll have clinical skills sessions in uni which teach you how to do certain things which is very useful! You will also have someone who monitors your progress whilst on placement! Don't forget even the greatest nurses start from the bottom and have to build up their experience! That sounds good! Good-Luck :smile:


Thankyou so much for all your help you’ve made my mind up on being a nurse!! Good luck with your training :smile:.
