Information that’s good to know before you go

This is what the reviewer nominated as contributing to positive experiences at the placement.
I arrived very late - the welcome pack (cereal, milk, bread) made it a little easier to settle after the trip before starting a night shift. .

This is what the reviewer nominated as contributing to negative experiences at the placement.
No further elaboration was given on any negative features found within this review. - I will recommend this placement to my friends.
