Introduction

  • The subject of New Roles in Nursing, is a newly created subject aimed at 4th Degree students. With a new content, it will put the student in contact with an emerging perspective on the work of nursing professionals in the various areas in which they are positioning themselves as leaders in the care of people. The leadership of nurses in emerging roles, opens up new possibilities for professional development and visualization of nursing work, while opening new fields to labor insertion.

Pre-course requirements

The Department of Nursing in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences has agreed that it is compulsory for all students taking a Bachelor's degree in Nursing, when participating in online classes, to turn on their camera and remain visible to lecturers and professors at all times

If there are students in self-isolation due to the COVID-19 health and safety measures, who cannot physically attend class at the University like their peers, teaching staff will carry out online teaching during this isolation period only so that the student(s) in question can attend their classes online. The rest of the students will have to attend their classes in person in the classroom.
