Site reviews
Helpful for students
As a student nurse and someone who has struggled with my mental health, I have really enjoyed what I have seen, it’s a great opportunity to find like-minded people and I’m grateful to be able to see things from the perspective of a service user because as a student nurse you can’t really understand what it’s like to go through through the system and you only get to see things from a educational and professional prospective.
