- Worried about starting your first ever clinical placement as a student nurse in a hospital? Well, this is normal! This video aims to outline what you need to know to prepare for your first-year first placement as a student nurse. Attending your first clinical placement can be really daunting, but with these tips, you can start off with a really good impression.
It is important to make contact with your placement area early and to plan a visit to the ward in order to meet your practice assessors and practice supervisors. By doing this you will start to reduce some of your nerves and anxiety around starting placement and you'll be able to enjoy your first clinical placement experience. In this video, I give you insider tips as a real nurse who works with student nurses a lot in the hospital, and I want to point out some areas to focus your attention on so you can succeed in your first student nursing placement. I also discuss some of the things you should buy prior to your first hospital placement as a student, and I have listed them below.
Starting a new placement as a student can be tough but if you prepare yourself correctly, you can have such a great time learning in clinical practice.

Love this video, very relatable, the beginner's anxiety is very common and the tips for that will never be enough, so thank you, helpful as always :)
Thank you, William! Yeah, we always get anxious when starting out for the first time, but hopefully with just a little preparation this will help people to enjoy their first placements :)

Amazing ! I needed this, starting first ever neurology clinical placement on Tuesday, as you suggested I am terrified !
...So how was your first day, Stella? I am sure it was filled with excitement and nerves...all of which is perfectly normal. I really hope it was a good experience?
How did it go??
love love love. thank you Ben
Amazing!! Pleasure!!
Thank you so much for this I am starting my first placement as a Mental Health Nurse soon. Anxiety is hitting hard lol
Hello Andrew. This is so exciting! All the best of luck to you. The first placement is going to be full of mixed emotions for you, but try and keep an open mind and I’m sure you’ll have an amazing time.
Is there anything driving the anxiety in particular? The unknown?
Thanks Ben you are awesome and thanks for the lovely tips as expecting to go for my first placement which might be cancelled again x
Oh, Sarah, I am sorry to hear you might have your placement canceled again. It is such a turbulent time for you as students, I really feel for you. But I am pleased that some of the tips have been helpful for you! Good luck! Ben x

Hello Natasha! That is so wonderful to hear. Are you just about to start university then? How are you feeling? And thank you for your comment and subscribing - it means a lot :)
@@TheLondonNurse Hi, yes about to start in a few weeks as an adult student nurse. Super excited but scared senseless at the same time hahahaha... Xx
Natasha we’ve all been there - the excitement sometimes gets gate crashed by the nerves but eventually you’ll be able to manage your nerves to just enjoy your journey! 👍🏼
I’m just editing a new video that will be uploaded on Monday about what to expect in your first shifts ☺️
Thank you so much. This is so helpful! First placement starts on Monday 🤞🏼🥳
This is amazing to hear! How are you feeling? Really best of luck!
@@TheLondonNurse Nervous but excited and videos like this make it easier to try and prepare. Thanks!:)
Hi Carol! So great to hear. At some points your nerves will be strong, but never as strong as your excitement 🥳 have a great time! My video I’m making to launch on Monday is going to be about what to do when it’s busy and calm on the wards 👌🏼
Thank you angel I needs this :)
Ah! It’s my pleasure!!
Wooow thank you soo much.....this is so helpful.. please keep them coming 😁

Take care. Ben
Thank you.. make sure u r taking care of yourself 😁
Still the cutest advice giver
HAHAHAA!!! Thanks! I guess! Hahaha
True, if you're ever on Skype Ben say hi
very helpful thank you
I’m pleased you found it helpful Stephanie! 🤩
I'm starting my first placement on Monday! I am bricking it even though talking to children and parents is second nature to me. 🤣
Good morning Charlotte. Thanks for commenting :) Are you starting children’s nursing then? Great that you’re fine with talking with children and parents! If that is second nature to you, then use that as something to comfort you in times where you’re really nervous - have a chat with the families! 🥳
Good luck, and enjoy it!
Yes I am studying child nursing. I think it's because we have had next to no practical experience and apart from taking a temperature my ob skills are well... Non existent.
Yes I can imagine that is really tough. But hey, you’ll be out with real patients tomorrow and a ton of skilled staff that will be more than happy to help you get the hang of it all. Stick to the HCAs, other students, and just be really honest with your supervisors and assessor that you’ve not had experience with anything yet. They will be more than happy to help get you familiar and comfortable with your fundamentals! 🙏🏻 good luck! Let us know how you get on! Ben
