On June 20th 2022, a focus group was held with SSTeMM Student Nurse Development Team at SETU (Tara Kenny, Aoife Treacy, Aoife Corr, Niamh Furlong, Molly Connor, Andrea Kabinda Makaya, Kevina Nolan and Roisin Meaney). The Student Nurse Development Team provided further feedback on the SSTeMM mobile application, their general views on the challenges of clinical placement for students and how this impacted on their level of stress and suggestions as to future research that should be done to help student nurses with their wellbeing on clinical placement. The discussions were facilitated by Professor John Wells, Dean of the School of Health Sciences, South East Technological University and Florian Scheibein, Research Assistant on the SSTeMM project.
