Overview
Child Health Nursing, or Pediatric Nursing, is dedicated to the medical care of neonates, infants, children, and adolescents. This specialty requires a deep understanding of human growth and development, as well as the unique physiological and psychological needs of children facing acute or chronic illnesses.
Our department focuses on family-centered care. Students are trained to work closely with families to minimize the trauma of hospitalization for children. The curriculum covers a wide spectrum from basic immunization schedules to complex pediatric intensive care.
