Life as a student nurse shows
some of the difficulties in life,
But don't give up because there is
also much happiness in life too!

Charlie Yuk Choi Ling (Charmaine Sheh) is a first year student nurse and life through her young eyes is fairly simple. She loves children and loves lively places so her ambition is to become a pediatric nurse.

Charlie's room mate is a stuck-up rich girl called Crystal Ko Hiu Nam (Hong Chi Nei). Crystal's father and two brothers are doctors and she feels a failure because she is not a doctor as well, so she enrolls as a student nurse as a stepping stone for her career. She hopes to one day move onto medical school. With one person enthusiastically wanting to be a nurse and the other seeing nursing as a second-rate career, how can these two room mates avoid confrontation?

Stuck between the two is male student nurse Yung Tak Kei (Chan Kin Fung). Kei has wanted to be a nurse ever since he was very young, so against his mother's wishes, he applies for nursing school. Kei and Crystal know each other from school and Kei has always secretly admired her, but Crystal has always played it cool and rejected him. Kei is very hurt by this, but Charlie stands by him and the two remain positive towards their work and eventually find love in each other.

Before Crystal's dream of becoming a doctor can be realized, another nightmare befalls her as she develops cancer of the kidneys. As she fights her illness, Crystal and Kei look after her with care; but Crystal's cool exterior breaks down, realizing the importance in the role of a nurse and also the feelings that she never before felt for Kei.....
