Article Abstract:

Training to be a nurse was challenging, according to Gavin Smith, who trained with his wife Geraldine when they were both made redundant from a rubber factory in 1992. They had very little money, and they found it difficult to combine their family life with studying. His wife has found that training to be a nurse has greatly boosted her self-confidence. She has no particular desire for rapid career progression, but her husband would like to go into community nursing or occupational health.

They found that they got on very well together, and discussed many different issues, including how to deal with difficult personalities at work.
