Proposed Program
Very few people in Namur are speaking English.
To facilitate the integration and the communication in the units and wards, the ENM students will be accompany with a French speaking student during the entire observational placement.
We proposed some days of observational placements at general hospitals and in psychiatric hospital. The others activities are professional visits in health community centres and institutions, visit at the oldest hospital in Belgium, Hôpital Notre Dame à la Rose in Lessines, cultural visit in Namur and reflective sessions/workshop at school.
