Year 4, Bachelor of Nursing (Full-time) students

In the summer of 2019, we joined a summer programme organised by The University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, Canada. It was a very special programme that included both academic and cultural activities. Our course focused on senior care and community nursing in Canada and we had opportunities to visit local elderly homes and subsidized residences. We also joined in their social activities, such as dumpling making and a tea party, and we had a great time chatting with the residents and staff.

In our free time, we enjoyed exploring Vancouver. One of our favourite activities was cycling in Stanley Park. You can enjoy a stunning view and cycle along the sea, it was fantastic! We also met a lot of international nursing students during our stay in Canada such as students from Singapore and Korea. We hope we can keep in touch!
