Why does Nursing at Dai Nam University attract students?

As one of the three core training majors of Dai Nam University, Nursing is a major with a large number of applications each admission season. So, why is Nursing at Dai Nam University so attractive to students? The following article will help you have the answer and the most objective view of this major at DNU.

Nursing is a major with a very large number of applications each admission season.

ASEAN standard training program

From the very beginning, the Nursing training program of Dai Nam University was built according to ASEAN standards. When comparing the training program of the Faculty with some training programs of leading schools in the region in Nursing, such as: Mahidol University - Thailand, Osaka University - Japan, there is a high similarity of over 80% in content.

This is a great advantage for students who, upon graduation, can immediately access the international working environment according to the Agreement between the Vietnamese Government and ASEAN countries on "Recognition of Nursing Qualifications" in 2008 and the Basic Nursing Competency Standards based on the Western Pacific and ASEAN Nursing Standards in 2012 of the Ministry of Health.

In addition, the training program is reviewed, updated annually, and innovated according to the criteria for recruiting nurses at medical facilities in Vietnam and the region.

Modern training program, emphasizing practice.

Evaluate students based on practical ability and real-life problem solving skills

If the previous method of evaluating nursing students focused too much on theory, Dai Nam University especially focuses on practical skills and solving real-life situations.

Therefore, the school has set out a requirement for assessing the practice of Nursing techniques to achieve a high level according to the Dave skill assessment scale through the OSCE station running test - an assessment method that has been and is being applied by international Nursing Universities.

For basic theoretical subjects, the school evaluates students' knowledge through the Bloom scale. Real-life situations and cases are presented for students to apply their knowledge, thereby forming and developing the ability to analyze, think critically, and respond quickly to real-life situations.

Students are "hands-on" and practice systematically on modern Skillslab models.

The Faculty of Nursing has a system of well-invested and modern practice labs that meet the maximum teaching and practice requirements of teachers and students. A team of lecturers and technicians who are professionally trained in Skillslab teaching will guide and guide students on human body simulation models, helping them gain basic professional knowledge before coming into contact with real patients at the practice hospital.

The system of joint practice hospitals between the Central and Hanoi ensures that students have the most "realistic" internship.

Dai Nam University is cooperating with many large hospitals in Hanoi, such as: Bach Mai Hospital, Central Obstetrics Hospital, Central Psychiatric Hospital I, Xanh-pon General Hospital, Thanh Nhan General Hospital, Ha Dong General Hospital... so that students have a place to practice applying the knowledge learned in the classroom into practice, at the same time approaching real health care activities at medical facilities.

Contrary to the reality that students on internships are not allowed to approach patients, only sit in the hospital hallway, waiting for the end of the day to go home, which is happening at many training facilities, DNU Nursing students on internships are guided by healthcare professionals with many years of experience working in accordance with the signed cooperation agreement.

Opportunities to participate in international programs, support for education

To keep up with the general development trend of the healthcare industry in the ASEAN region and the world, Dai Nam University has many international cooperation programs and scientific conferences organized to create opportunities for lecturers and students to access new sources of knowledge and apply them to the context of Vietnam. To achieve this, DNU Nursing students are given special attention to basic English training and specialized English (which is not yet focused on in other public and private schools).

Have the opportunity to work in an international environment

The great demand for human resources in the Nursing industry is not only in Vietnam but also in many other developed countries. For example, in the US, 16.5% or 54 million people are 65 years of age or older and continue to increase. The elderly need more medical care than other age groups, so the job growth rate for the nursing industry is 9%, higher than all other occupations. In Japan, 4 out of 5 people over 75 years old will lack nursing care by 2025. Therefore, students majoring in Nursing can completely work and settle in many countries around the world. On the condition that they fully comply with the regulations in that country. Being trained in professional skills according to international standards, foreign languages and soft skills are key factors that help Dai Nam University students after graduation have wide job opportunities in the international environment.

DNU Nursing students do internships and experience a professional and modern working environment in Japan.

Highly qualified, enthusiastic lecturers who continuously study to improve their qualifications

100% of the faculty of the Nursing Department have a Master's degree or higher, and are professionally trained at prestigious nursing training institutions in the country and internationally.

In particular, DNU Nursing lecturers are proficient in English. This is also an advantage for faculty members to continuously study and improve their professional qualifications because most medical knowledge documents are in English.

Currently, the Faculty of Nursing is continuously training in postgraduate expertise and scientific research is directly exchanged with a team of professors and doctors of the American Nursing Association.
