How would you teach your students?

As a responsible practitioner working in a busy public hospital, I need to ensure patients will be seen and treated on time. Of course, they must be happy with the treatment provided too. Who would like a crappy job done on their feet after all??
2 final -year students arrived last morning to start their 10 weeks stint placement at the hospital.
After assessing the student's progress on my first client, I doubt the student wasn't engaging good techniques , for instance, using the nail clippers or scalpels.
From then onwards, I preferred to sit in and guide as they go along during the treatment period.

BUT, I got a remark from this acting manager. She felt that I shouldn't be protective of the students and instead, I should leave my clients to them. My responsibility is to check their work after treatment provided afterwards. She reassured that I should be enjoying a cuppa tea and relax at one corner.

What's worst,she told the students to take their time on the treatment!? Firstly,this is public sector. If we don't keep track of timing on each patients, all of us will have to end up going late without OT pay. Somehow , the students have to buck up a lot quicker than expected then. I can't wait for a student just to cut someone's nails for 40mins.

I wanted to give a good spanking to this third year student. He wrote :" callous reduced on plantar surface of feet."

Callous means a word that describes on a person who is insensible, hardening, apathetic.

Yes, I am saying that it should be 'callus' -D'oh!
