The sample was 85 students at the end of their course and a questionnaire of two sections and 26 items was given them with a total adhesion to the study. The results demonstrate that many students (28%) did not know their future role and relationship with nurses so someone showed discomfort and disappointment (6%). Eleven students (13.1%) declared having difficult relationship with nurses, especially during their training in settings where chef nurse is highly criticised and a clinical tutor is nearly always absent.
