Abstract
The Nursing and Midwifery Council promotes the idea that patients should contribute to the assessment of preregistration student nurses. In response, staff, mentors and pre-registration student nurses from the University of West of England Bristol and the Royal United Hospital Bath worked together to develop, pilot and introduce a way of achieving this with a patient testimony tool. The tool, which is a feedback sheet, was developed through consultation with patients and carers, then piloted and is now used in an acute hospital. This article discusses how the tool was developed. It outlines how it was implemented and the challenges this involved, and looks at plans for development.
