Practicum (Clinical Training)

The whole community will be the learning field. We provide high quality clinical training through our collaborative efforts with leading hospitals in the community.
Our students begin clinical training from the second year of study based on the philosophy of "Nursing is a science of practice."
Our training hospitals and health facilities are located within 30 minutes from Ichinomiya station, the nearest station from our university.

The merits of our clinical training program include:

  • Students start clinical training after completing sufficient basic education in the first year
  • Students have generous support in small groups
  • Students have the opportunity to learn in leading health facilities with hands on clinical training

Five students are placed into one group, and dedicated teachers will guide them closely throughout these clinical training sessions.
In addition, students are also placed into individual practice conferences in order to make clear and discuss issues or challenges they are experiencing with the clinical practice contents, nursing skills, and to help them achieve maximum results by reviewing their clinical practice.
