Abstract

Mental health nursing students experience education from both academic institutions and on clinical placements, yet there often remains a divide in understandings and attitudes between the two. This editorial provides personal and professional comment on this issue, and identifies it as something which must be addressed in order that we promote rather than hinder the development of our profession.
