The student UCBM he spent six months in Pamplona
18 April 2016 - The nursing tradition has its roots in Spain UCBM, thanks to the ten female students who had the opportunity to study at the University of Navarra in the 90s. From there the young women returned to being nurses, to transfer their experience to the University Hospital which was soon to be opened in Rome.
Nursing training, at that time, in Italy had not yet reached the level of other European countries: also for this reason Msgr. Álvaro del Portillo, who inspired the new university, wanted the project to include a School of Nursing Sciences. A dream that the long journey of the ten nurses made it possible to transform into reality. A training that all of them continue to make fruitful among the wards of the Campus Bio-Medico University Hospital.
A quarter of a century later, it is Nico Celi who retraces that same route. The -year-old, a recent nursing graduate from theUCBM, a university where he was also a representative of the students of the same course of study, he recently spent three months on Erasmus at the University Clinic of Navarra, carrying out internship activities in the cardiology and cardiac surgery, oncology and hematology departments. A much desired period of study abroad, made possible by a call made available by the company Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma.
Nico recounts: "The University Clinic of Navarra is well organized and with cutting-edge technologies. The clinical training was one of the best moments of the day. In the pediatrician's surgery, on the other hand, I took part in audiometric and visual examinations, administering vaccines and teaching the mothers to breastfeed". The experience in Pamplona allowed the young student to experience once again how "central attention to the patient is". At the University Clinic of Navarra as well as at the Campus Bio-Medico University Hospital. A thread that continues to unite realities that are so distant, yet so close.
