Nurses at the front line of Covid-19

 Workshop 3 was held in May with the theme of Covid-19 pandemic and it's effect on nursing and nursing ethics. Various topics and views were discussed during our 3-hour workshop. Check out the students presentations:

Greetings from workshop 2

 

Workshop 2 was held in April and it concentrated in various cultural differences: in nursing ethics, mental health nursing, adult nursing, pediatric nursing, community nursing, elderly care nursing and end-of-life care.

The participating students from all educational organizations studied these topics within their own countries and then shared their information in international study groups and looked at the found similarities and differences.

Great discussions about values

 

Greetings from workshop 1

As a third year nursing student I have found it extremely interesting and rewarding to join European colleagues to gain a unique insight into nursing ethics, values and good practice across different nations.

Within my specific group Seven Seas of Nursing we have had some great discussions about what our values are and found lots of common ground within the group. We share a good sense of humour and have exchanged stories about our countries. I have learnt a lot culturally about my colleagues in Croatia and Finland and look forward to finding out more as the sessions go on.

I would like to thank Kirsi Myllykangas for providing support and for organising and facilitating our seminars. I would also like to thank UEA's Paul Linsley for inviting me to get involved with the International Nursing Ethics workshops and for his ongoing support.

Kind regards,

Penny Gee
3rd Year Learning Disabilities Student at UEA (The University of East Anglia).

It has started!

What a historical day!

Today we had a great launch for our network´s first ever online studies! Roughly 30 students and 10 faculty members from six different countries and seven educational organizations gathered in Teams to get to know each other and hear about the content of what's to come in our workshops during this spring. 




After introducing ourselves we had a couple of quizzes about the countries we were from learning interesting facts and details around the world. Students were divided into five smaller studygroups and were asked to name theirselves. Further on we have the 7 Seas of Nursing, TIN (Together in Nursing), NEO, Lakritsi Dumpling Pie and Slavcek working and studying different aspects of Nursing ethics. 


Ethical decision making and "what if"?

The study groups were also presented various different situations that required ethical decision making, such as "What would you do if you found money on the floor. What if the money was in a wallet?", "What if you saw a pregnant woman smoking. What if they were smoking whilst holding a small child?" and "You are working in emergency care and a male prisoner is bought in by guards for treatment for a head wound. What if it was a female prisoner being bought in by a guard and she is due to give birth?


The studygroups will now continue their work with special tasks before the workshop 1. We can hardly wait for March!
