The Department of Medical Surgical Nursing provides courses related to adult nursing as well as advanced nursing practice within the framework of the curriculum of St Luke’s College of Health Sciences and the Nurses and Midwives Council of Malawi (NMCM).
The department provides student-centered teaching and learning in a favourable atmosphere for a hands-on experience that helps the students to gain confidence in their nursing knowledge, skills, and attitudinal practice.
Critical procedures in patient care are trained through simulated patients so as to gain expertise and confidence in the students and thereby practice in the clinical areas. The course offers opportunity for students to learn adult health problems so as to equip with the understanding of providing comprehensive care.
