Description


The external internships within the degree in Nursing of the ESCS Tecnocampus are carried out in the following subjects:

  • Introductory Practicum I - II - III, in the second academic year of the Degree in Nursing.
  • Clinical Practicum I - II - III, in the third academic year of the Degree in Nursing.
  • Advanced Practicum I - II - III, in the fourth academic year of the Degree in Nursing.

These subjects guarantee the credits and clinical training hours as set out in Directive 2013 / 55EU of 20 November 2013.

External internships include all teaching-learning activities aimed at acquiring skills in the different environments where Nursing develops its practice. For the follow-up and evaluation of the students in the different periods of the Practicum there are three relevant figures: the academic tutor, the clinical tutor and the follow-up tutor. The three tutors accompany and ensure the achievement of the competencies (both generic and specific) of each of the Internships through continuous and formative assessment.

The subject of Advanced practicum has a total of 50 ECTS between the three subjects that form it: Advanced Practicum I, II and III. The student who can take these subjects has passed the other theoretical subjects of the three degree courses, for this reason, is a student with a high level of achievement of skills that is willing to develop in a much more professional existing health challenges.

That is why the ESCST is committed to a more integrative practical model in the last year and that allows the student a holistic view, not so much of the specific pathologies, but of the care processes, as they are addressed from of the different levels of care that our health system has.

In the Advanced Practicum, students have the option of doing specialized internships with or without rotation and/or itineraries. The structures can be different according to the availability of services and units of each of the health institutions where the students spend their stays
