VI. Read and translate the text: Text b. A mental health nurse

I’ve just finished my training and I am now a qualified mental health nurse. The course was in two parts, half general nursing and half mental nursing. I’ve studied a lot of theory but the real learning has come from my placements in psychiatric wards.

My first placement was on a ward for elderly people. The patients were all very quiet but I was still terrified when I started. I thought some of the things the patients said and did were really strange.

One day I took a relaxation group. But no one told me that doing relaxation can start a psychotic episode. We were all lying down on the floor – all nicely relaxed. Suddenly a woman in the group started screaming. I was so shocked that I almost screamed too.

Another time I took a patient out for a walk round the town. Suddenly he ran off down the street. What should I do? Run after him? No, I took a chance. I was just standing watching him. He stopped and looked back. I smiled and gave a friendly wave then turned around and walked slowly back towards the hospital. A minute later he joined me. He was laughing. I was quite proud of myself that day.
