I know many student nurses will be worried about the news today but please be patient with your universities as they organise around these new NMC emergency education standards. They're not purposefully withholding information from you. #studentnurse

Whilst we hoped we would not need to take this action again once again our 3rd years have been asked to be part of the response. We will work with partners to ensure all students are supported which ever year group, wherever they work, and that they learn & develop . >MR 1/

Student nurses are joining the NHS workforce during this crisis. They have no idea what to expect . They won’t admit it, but they will be terrified and lonely. Please be kind to them. How they are treated now will determine how they treat others in the future.

"If you want to be a doctor, it's just, have you got loads of As and are you good at hockey?" Adam Kay, former doctor and author of the bestselling book 'This is Going to Hurt' says medical schools would get a "better calibre of doctor" if they dropped the entry grades.

Great day with our 2nd year pre reg child students. First time in the Sim room for this group. They did so well @CumbriaUHealth
When I became a mentor, I did so on the basis that I never wanted any student to feel the way some made me feel as a student. Don’t address them as ‘the student’ take time to learn their name, their aspirations. Let them take control at times. Teach them but also learn from them.
