From May to December, third-year students of the Department of Nursing undergo practical training in various fields.I will introduce the pediatric nursing practice in it.

During the two-week practical training period, four days will be spent practicing at the Kita-Harima General Medical Center.Currently, in order to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, you must wear a mask or face shield when interacting with your child or family.In a hospital environment, being approached by strangers and wearing masks and face shields due to the corona crisis can be scary for children and often cause them to cry.
