Starting out - I learnt to adapt to different mentor-student relationships.

My second year of nursing has been a long one. No more excitement and chaos living in student halls; no more concessions on the ward for being on my first placement; no more messing around. I have had to learn, because some day in the not too distant future I will be a staff nurse. I will get handed the keys, my superior will go for a tea break and I will be the 'nurse in charge'.
