Student nurses and counselling services.
Studies have shown that health service staff are often reluctant to talk about their own problems and tend to be cautious about admitting to ill health. Margaret Doust describes a study involving student nurses and their perceptions of an existing counselling service. The results show that while the vast majority of students were positive in their attitude to the service, many said they would feel embarrassment or anxiety at the idea of visiting a counsellor to discuss a problem.
