What Happens in the Class

It is obvious that the beginner would have less of a workload than what her senior colleague has. She may have to spend more time in the class since working in the field can come only when she has learned enough to understand what she would encounter in the field. In the beginning, the student would have more theory and less practical training. But as she learns she would be put more and more on practical training and less and less on theoretical class work.

Training to be a nurse is not the same as attending classes in the University for some other Course. Nursing is an exact profession and requires rigorous training. It would not do if the student is in the habit of skipping classes. No such student is allowed to continue. While it is important to be regular in the class it is equally important to be prepared for the class. A nurse can never afford to be ill prepared or unprepared at any stage of her career this is especially true at the period when she a student and not yet fully a nurse.

Each day in the life of a student nurse, beginning with day one, is planned most meticulously. She has to get up at a specific time. Be in the class at a specific time. Since there are other members in her batch any student who is careless is affecting the work of others, which cannot be allowed under any circumstances. From the moment she wakes up (which has to be at a specific house of day) to the moment she sleeps (which again has to be at a specific hour of the day) each minute of her time has to be spent according to the schedule worked out by the institute. She must follow it most religiously. Or forget about being a nurse.
