Easing the transition: preparing nursing students for practice.
NHS Fife and the University of Dundee School of Nursing and Midwifery jointly offer final-year adult nursing students the opportunity to undertake an employment induction programme and apply for the nurse bank before they register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council. If successful, they are guaranteed places on a four-week paid induction programme on the nurse bank as soon as their registrations take effect. Early evaluation suggests that this opportunity helps participants to become more confident about making the transition from student to qualified practitioner.
