Our session gives you the chance to experience what being a nurse is really like. From taking a patient's Vital Signs Observations and learning why taking these details is so important, to trying your hand at simulated wound care, removing stitch staples and chest auscultations with our simulated dummy.
This Adult Nursing taster session will take place at our Clinical Skills Centre which includes mock clinical wards and simulated theatres and teaching rooms.
We'll begin with a short theory session, to prepare you before the practical activities begin. Once you're ready, we will be taking a patient's Vital Signs Observations including pulse, temperature, oxygen saturations, blood pressure and respiratory rate, while documenting these details.
You'll then have the chance to try your hand at simulated wound care, removing stitch staples and chest auscultations with our simulated dummy.
We'll then debrief and evaluate the clinical procedures and finish the session with a Q&A with academic staff and current students.
