Nursing Studies 22/23
Welcome to the Nursing Studies Class of 2022 / 2023
It is with great pleasure we welcome our New QQI Level 5 Nursing Studies Students to St Conleth’s Community College.
We began the year by getting involved with the Irish Wheel Chair Association ( IWA) annual Flag day on the 29th of September. This is a wonderful partnership as later in our academic year the IWA will return to the college and work with us on a Disability awareness day which helps all students link their Nursing Theory to practice.
Everyone enjoyed a great day of collaboration with this wonderful voluntary organisation. Thanks again to all our student volunteers!

Reading List - |
Work Placement is always one of the highlights of the year for the nursing studies students, but unfortunately due to Covid 19 restrictions that was not possible this year. This was where we used our strong networks built up over the years and reached out to one of our usual placement facilitators Curragh Lawns Nursing Home.
The nursing homeowner and management team immediately stepped in and offered to facilitate four practical lectures from the nursing home. These were devised to allow the students to see the theory that they had learned in class come alive in practice. This was the next best thing to being able to be there in person. Valerie (DON) and Saritha (ADON) delivered four very well planned and executed lectures which brought all the learning alive. Danielle one of our class representatives organized a virtual whip around and went out and presented Saritha and the staff with a hamper to be used for the residents' activities. (see the photo and class photos) We want to thank Valerie, Saritha and everyone in Curragh Lawns for their continued support for our course, the students may not have got out on placement this year, but they certainly got an insight into the day-to-day life of a health care facility.
