“Students don’t ask to see a counsellor”: how can school nurses help coping with everyday pain - a podcast by BMJ Group

Professor Quinn (University of Massachusetts Lowell, Solomont School of Nursing, USA) is the author of a commentary published by Evidence-Based Nursing titled: “School nurses are able to support adolescents experiencing pain secondary to stress and unhealthy lifestyle choices”.
