@GrumpyOldNurse
I think we need it back! Seriously though, my friend is
saying the quality of the students coming in is frightening,
no use, fucking shite attitude, thick as mince and don't even
seem to care so why bother picking such a career.

One of the biggest changes has been how wards are run.
“When I first started, it was very strict," she said. "For example when the matron came on to the ward, you would have to stand, and bow to her. You would never consider stepping out of line. “You would have to know the age, name, diagnosis, and treatment plan for every patient, even when there were up to 30 beds on the ward. It was so disciplined."
But Ms Rees feels some of the approach to nursing has also changed.
She said: “Nursing has also become a more academic vocation over time, and has moved away from the bedside nursing of interacting with patients and getting to know them.
"My focus was always the patients, I really feel it's about the patients, and making them feel cared for and listened to.
“I did some time as a theatre nurse and I was really looking forward to that but it was probably the biggest disappointment as I didn’t have the patient contact because they were under anaesthetic.
"It felt a big loss to me not actually having that communication with patients."...............................................................
