Content

In skills labeducation, the emphasis is on learning and mastering various nursing techniques from a holistic and person-centred perspective, underpinned by theoretical principles. Students work in accordance with protocols, guidelines and quality standards, and develop the ability to deviate from these, where necessary, in a conscious and reasoned manner, based on the context and the wishes of the care recipient.

This course covers the fundamentals of nursing practice, such as maintaining hygiene, providing basic care and ensuring the comfort, safety and wellbeing of the care recipient. Through e-learning modules, instructional lessons and scenario-based training, students work specifically on their own professional development. Students receive feedback on their attitude, communication and technical skills as part of their training, either in a simulated setting or during workplace learning.

Topics that may be covered:

  • Hygiene
  • Basic care (ADL, oral care, elimination, compression therapy, repositioning techniques)
  • Vital signs
  • Nursing documentation (EPD)
  • Oral medication, nebuliser therapy and oxygen administration

Competence Mastery Level 1 (CBN, 2022)

At the first level, the context is of medium complexity, with the focus on the methodical application of knowledge and skills in accordance with guidelines and protocols in varying but similar situations. The nature of the task is structured, involving the application of familiar methods.

The student learns to manage their own learning (self-direction) in terms of planning, motivation and reflection. Reflection is aimed at knowledge and understanding, with a focus on innovation.

The guidance provided is aimed at fostering increasing self-direction.

Assessment:

At the end of the course, there is a skills assessment in which knowledge, attitude and competence are demonstrated. The assessment is graded and must be a pass (5.5 or higher).
