Nursing students train in communities from Kings County to Kenya
Fourth-year nursing students from the 秀色短视频 are spending two months developing and applying their clinical skills in communities across PEI, in Nova Scotia and Alberta, and even as far afield as Florida, the Cayman Islands, and Kenya.
Forty-three students are enhancing their learning at the Queen Elizabeth, Prince County, Western, Hillsborough, Eastern Kings and Stewart Memorial hospitals, and at the Palliative Care Centre in Charlottetown. Others are honing their skills at the IWK Hospital in Halifax, the Nova Scotia Hospital in Dartmouth, and the Peter Lougheed and the Rockyview hospitals in Calgary. Six have chosen international experiences, including four who are working at the St. Teresa Mission hospital, at an HIV outreach clinic, and in a children's home in the village of Kiirua in Kenya.
These local, national, and international placements provide students with practical opportunities to integrate the nursing theory and clinical learning they have acquired over the four years of their Bachelor of Nursing program, and to develop personally as nursing professionals. The students will complete their placements at the beginning of April.
