Harriet is a first-year RAF student nurse on her first 10-week training placement, at Birmingham City Hospital. As she suffers abuse from dementia patients and grapples with the embarrassing bodily functions that arise from their old age, she draws on her military background to stay strong. A quarter of all student nurses dropping out before completing their training; will Harriet stay the distance? Gemma is a newly qualified nurse in her first six months on the job. At just 21 she has to face sights most of us will never see, on a daily basis - dying patients, dead bodies - yet she still breezes into work declaring her love for the job. The kind of nurse you'd dream of finding by your bedside, Gemma's desperate to prove that nurses definitely do care. But as she goes the extra mile to be there for patients, it isn't long before she discovers it's possible to care too much. With only a year on the job, Angela (22) refuses to let her limited experience hold her back. A spirited nurse with attitude and confidence in equal measure, she believes every nurse has their own coping mechanism, and hers is to let things go over her head. As she strives to strike a balance between being professional at work and being young and fun out of work, she finds herself increasingly drawn to the adrenaline kicks that accompany emergency nursing
