Year 4 Bachelor of Nursing (Full-time) students

In January, we joined the nursing exchange programme at Trinity College Dublin, which has a history of more than 400 years. Nursing and midwifery are degree programmes in Ireland and there are a variety of specialties that students can choose from starting in year 1, such as general nursing, mental health, midwifery, intellectual disability and paediatrics.

We joined in the programme with American students. Apart from studying, we attended school tours, hospital tours and lab tours. One interesting tour was the Central Mental Hospital, where criminals with mental illnesses have stayed. We enjoyed the Irish culture and also the hospitality from locals, and felt it was a totally worthwhile programme.
