I've filled in quite a few feedback forms for student nurses in recent times. I'm not completely comfortable with them (the forms). The student reads what you've written, and many are given the opportunity to comment on what you've written.
I feel under pressure to give good feedback. I'm conscious the student has yet to complete their course, and 'needs' good feedback. I fear (perhaps wrongly) that if I say anything that they could construe as critical they would be upset. I think (perhaps wrongly) that they are less robust, more vulnerable than staff who've been qualified for ages.
I don't know what the solution is. I don't think it would be right if the service-user's feedback went straight back to their tutors without the student seeing it at all. Just wondering if any student nurses, their tutors, qualified nurses or anyone else had any thoughts about this?
