part of the practical application of the “Mental Health Nursing” course, senior standing students at the College of Nursing, Al-Bayan University, are continuing their clinical training program at Ibn Rushd Psychiatric Training Hospital.
\nAn essential component of this training involves in-depth scientific discussion sessions for the students. This session was held following the students’ completion of direct clinical interviews and psychiatric assessments of patients.
\nThe session was dedicated to discussing and analyzing the cases that the students had personally followed. An interactive dialogue took place focusing on the clinical nursing assessments and the psychological dimensions of each case. Under the supervision of faculty members, the students discussed the best nursing care interventions and proposed treatment plans based on their practical observations.
\nThis methodology aims to enable students to transition smoothly from theory to application, training them to connect academic knowledge with immediate clinical practice. These analytical sessions also contribute to honing their critical thinking skills and building the necessary confidence to practice their humanitarian profession competently.
