Adult Nursing: Live Treatment In Surrey’s Clinical Simulation Centre With Lisa Blazhevski & Undergraduate Students From University of Surrey
17th May 2023 @ 17:45 - 18:30
We would like to welcome you to adult nursing at the University of Surrey.
In this session, we will explore what an adult nurse is and where a career in adult nursing can take you while we also introduce you to our Surrey Clinical Simulation Centre, having fun with a scenario. You will have the opportunity to watch how learning in a simulated environment can enhance your knowledge and skills.
The Sim Centre’s job is to give trainee healthcare professionals an experience of their future role, as close to the real thing as possible, making the most of learning opportunities and taking away the risk to patients.
We aim to have Nurses, Paramedics, Midwives and Doctors practice real skills with real equipment, on fake patients; It’s a safe place to make mistakes and learn from them.
In the scenario we will be caring for a patient who is feeling short of breath. You will need to make decisions about their care for our student nurses to complete based on the information provided.
From the scenario we will be able to look at how a patient responds to your care treatments and why it is important to consider how human biology links in with nursing decision-making.
If you are interested in a caring profession, biology and interpersonal skills, considering a BSc Hons Degree in Adult Nursing can bring a multitude of opportunities, lifelong learning and an incredibly rewarding career.
