Youths Flock to Summer Programme 2021 - Discover HKU Nursing

A Summer Programme aimed at secondary students who aspire to serve the community as professional nurses received a strong response during its run from July 29 to 31, 2021.

Around 100 students attended the first half-day activities on July 29, which featured Zoom lectures and small group tutorials on topics related to health management. The students also learned about the latest programme details, student life, missions and roles of nurses from the School’s teachers, student mentors and alumni.

Two identical full-day, on-site activities were also organised on July 30 and 31 at HKU. Participants were given a tour of the main campus and medical campus to familiarise themselves with the local neighbourhood and practiced hands-on clinical skills in the nursing lab. Students were especially impressed with the high-fidelity simulation, community simulation and VR cave, and enjoyed a fun and educational day at the HKU School of Nursing.
