Overview
Program description:
The occupation of nurses is a vocation that is pursued for the sake of health preservation, promotion and patient healing. Nurses observe patients in the hospital and continuously monitor their needs, take part in disease prevention and act as active contributors to the process of the patient’s recovery and rehabilitation. They help patients absorb and understand the information on their health status. Nurses holding a BSc degree can organise, manage and supervise all their internal medical, surgical, obstetric-gynaecological, psychiatric, intensive nursing and primary care tasks in every area of health care. They are responsible for conducting the healing-nursing activities prescribed by the physician and help the patient and the physician perform certain examinations. Graduates of the speciality are able to provide health care treatment for each age group from premature infants to elderly patients, explore the special needs of the patient and the person cared for, prepare nursing diagnoses and perform the tasks professionally on the basis of priorities, participate in planning, developing and implementing health care and social services.

Programme structure
The detailed requirements for teaching and studies, as well as the detailed regulations for training are laid down in the curriculum. The curriculum comprises compulsory, compulsory elective and elective subjects. A compulsory subject is one the completion of which is prescribed for everyone concerned in the programme. To complete an elective subject, students can choose from a set of subjects listed by the institution (especially specializations in a programme or subjects requiring special differentiated knowledge, degree thesis.)
A credit point (study point) is a unit of measure of average total student coursework workload needed to complete a subject (coursework unit). Credits can only be awarded for the subjects which are evaluated on a five or three-point grading system. The credit point value is independent of the
mark obtained, but the precondition of validating it is fulfilment of the conditions of this present set of rules, by fulfilling the requirements for a particular subject at least at pass level, or in the case of a 3-point grading scale at least at satisfactory level.
One credit point corresponds to fulfilment of 30 working hours of student workload. Student work includes both the hours spent at a lesson (contact hours) and the individual work (individual hours).
