On May 14, the Nursing School of Coimbra opened its doors to dozens of
secondary students.
In this visit to the facilities and laboratories of the ESEnfC, the
students from Cantanhede were able to see delivery simulations, provide care to newborns (baby mannequins) and learn techniques of basic life support.
With this initiative, within the scope of the School policies of openness to the exterior, the School intends to divulge the training offer, revealing, at the same time, the attractiveness of laboratorial teaching.
This guided visit allowed students who are considering a career in the health area to get in touch with the ESEnfC and, perhaps, chose our institution for future higher education studies.
In the welcoming session, the President of the Directing Board,
Professora Conceição Bento, explained that nurses not only help individuals and
families in the normal contexts during the life cycle but also in situations of
crisis.
Professors Conceição Bento emphasized that the School has the best
laboratories for Nursing teaching in the country, a students’ residence
(capable of welcoming and integrating displaced students) and leisure, sport
and study facilities.
