Have to say - having worked in the OR since I qualified 35ish years ago - if I get a student, nursing or med ,on placement and they show enthusiasm for the area, I will take the time to show them the technique. I have even lent them a suturing set and some catgut ( in the old days - now nylon ) to take away and practice with.

I feel that practical experience is invaluable for the student to have. Yes I agree, they should research the theory for themselves, but surely theres a certain expectation that experienced nurses pass on their knowledge.
