Students' experiences of a placement with health visitors during their adult nurse training.
This qualitative study explored the experiences of adult nursing students from one university who had undertaken a clinical placement with health visitors. A convenience sample of 10 students were recruited to the study and semistructured interviews used to gather data. Interviews were digitally recorded, transcribed verbatim and subject to thematic analysis. Three global themes emerged: the learning experience; mentors and mentorship; and the nursing and health visiting relationship.
