The beginning of a great adventure

Article Abstract:

It is important to recognize that not all nursing students lack experience of life, according to Deborah Glover, who co-edited 'The Student Survival Guide: From Here to Eternity' with Phil Hufton. She emphasizes that they sought to include material that would be relevant to non-traditional students. Hufton indicates that all the contributing authors are knowledgeable in their area but are also open-minded. He expresses the view that the book acts as a readable guide.

Patients need to be informed about the difficulties they may encounter during the post-operative stage, with nursing staff being trained to offer advice and reassurance about complications arising from anaesthetics and physical discomfort.
