title: How to stay sane as a student of nursing.
abstract: Student nurses experience both developmental and situational stress. While many of these stressors cannot be removed the level of stress experienced is dependent on perception and coping. Feelings of anxiety and stress can be decreased by a student's choice to become actively involved in stress-reduction techniques. This frees the student to experience the excitement and challenge of learning and the joy of helping people.
