Nursing is a profession focused on assisting individuals, families, and communities, so that they can attain, maintain, and recover optimal health and functioning from a biological, psychological and social point of view. The degree of Nursing is vocational, it calls for dedication due to the numbers of theoretical and practical hours; however, it’s a very gratifying since, from the very beginning, students live and take part in the hospital world, and come into contact with patients.
The teaching methodology asks students to work actively throughout the training process and encourages them a critical and creative attitude. The hospital training is the core of the teaching process and covers different healthcare levels. The training and pedagogical activities consist of theoretical-practical teaching, hospital and extra-hospital training, as well as seminars and lectures, etc.
