    We just met. Also present at the meeting were your supervisor Sini and Anssi. Your internship is going well. You are a motivated student and interested in mental health nursing. You participate actively and establish good connections with patients and the multidisciplinary team. You discuss your observations and opinions. The goals of the internship period are being fulfilled.
    Content for the upcoming weeks: care meeting, familiarizing with summary text, medication matters, working with a new patient, and getting acquainted with the Mielenterveystalo.fi website.
    The final evaluation you and your mentors will do together in your blog. Please don´t hesitate to contact me if there is something I can help you with this internship.
    BR, Arja-Sisko
