title: Helping staff help students.
abstract: Nurses in a variety of health care settings work with nursing students. Staff development educators can help the nurses create a successful student affiliation while protecting the agency and patients. By teaching staff what to ask and what to tell, educators help students learn without compromising care. Positive student experiences also may help recruit new graduates to the agency. Teaching the staff to share information will help staff help students.
