Greetings to the vibrant SSCNFOCUS community!
With the sun setting on July 17th, Soroti School of Comprehensive Nursing (SSCN) embarked on an exciting journey into a new semester. The campus has come alive with the promise of new beginnings and academic growth. As the Information committee, it brings us immense pleasure to share the latest updates, developments, activities, and aspirations that are shaping this chapter of our educational institution.
Despite the gradual return of the continuing students, there is an undeniable sense of anticipation and excitement in the air. The upcoming months are set to be packed with intensive coursework and practical sessions, requiring students' full attention and engagement. By easing into the semester, we ensure that everyone is ready to tackle the challenges that lie ahead.
As we gear up for a busy and dynamic semester, let's take a closer look at the remarkable happenings within the SSCN community.
New students:
For our newcomers, the start of this semester has been marked with a sense of enthusiasm and anticipation. The new extension class was the first to step through our doors last week on Monday 7th. These students are embarking on a journey towards professional excellence, and we are committed to providing them with the guidance and support they need to succeed.
This week, the direct class DND2/DMD2 followed suit, beginning their journey at SSCN on Monday 14th. What makes this semester particularly exciting is the introduction of two specialized tracks for our new direct students: 'Midwives' and 'Nurses.'
A Burst of Athletic Energy:
In the spirit of holistic development, the SSCN campus is now alive with sports training. Despite the delayed start, our enthusiastic students are taking to the fields with renewed vigor. Coaches have begun their rounds, imparting invaluable guidance and pushing our budding athletes to new heights. As a testament to our commitment to sports, a regional tournament is on the horizon, promising an opportunity for our students to showcase their talents and sportsmanship.
Ward Allocations:
The Continuing Extension Class and Directs Set 1 (DND 1) have already hit the ground running by diving into ward allocation activities. The hands-on experience they gain from these exercises lays the foundation for their future careers in nursing and midwifery. This practical exposure ensures that they are well-prepared to face the challenges of the healthcare field with confidence.
Domiciliary and community Allocation:
Among the numerous highlights of this semester is the distinctive pathway for our aspiring midwives and nurses. The Continuing Extension Class of Midwives is gearing up for an enriching Domiciliary experience, immersing themselves in the real-world context of maternal and newborn care. Additionally, the combined class of Continuing Extension Class Nurses will embark on a community training adventure. This immersive experience promises to enhance their understanding of community healthcare dynamics and strengthen their patient-centric approach.
The Journey of Research proposals and Research:
DNCND 29 students have fully embraced the research aspect of their academic journey. Already engrossed in their research work, they are exploring important healthcare topics that will contribute to the advancement of nursing knowledge and practices. Their dedication to research exemplifies the deep commitment that SSCN students have towards pushing the boundaries of healthcare excellence.
Amidst the excitement, some students are facing challenges related to choosing research topics and accessing computers. Efforts are underway to provide assistance and improve computer accessibility, aiming to create a level playing field for all. Together, we will overcome these challenges and pave the way for a fruitful academic journey.
The Unveiling of the Official School Program:
