Quotes...
“It was one of the best experiences in my life, being a nursing student for 3 months in the UK, at Keele University. I was welcomed by warm and friendly lecturers, nurses and sisters during my placement both in the School, community and hospital. Also, this experience was very instructive for me. I saw real nursing power in UK. Nearly all nurses in Keele University and the Hospital, embrace life-long learning. They have many opportunities for doing this. I want to thank all the staff from Keele again for a great experience.”

UPDATE
"I was a third year nursing student when I went to England for my Erasmus Programme in 2008. I did internship at the Keele University for three months. It was an excellent educational and development programme. I learnt nursing services in UK, British patient profiles, differences and similarities in practice, communication skills, and more through this programme. It was an enjoyable experience for me.
I graduated in 2010 after returning to my country and then, started to work as a Staff Nurse in a public hospital Intensive Care Unit. I worked there for ten months. Theoretical and practical knowledge I learnt at the School of Nursing and Midwifery Keele University helped me so much with my professional career.
Now, I’m working at Substance Abuse Unit of the Ministry of Health in Ankara. At the same time I am also studying for a Master’s Degree on Psychiatric Nursing at the Hacettepe University, Ankara.
I recommend this experience to all nurses in order to support their professional self-development and life-long learning."
