NKHOMA COLLEGE OF NURSING AND MIDWIFERY

On the 5th of May, 2022 Nkhoma College of Nursing and Midwifery through sponsorship from the UNFPA attended the Celebrations of the International Day of the Midwife held at Santhe - Kasungu. The event was graced by the Minister of Health Honourable Khumbize Kandodo Chiponda - MP. In attendance from the college were 2 lecturers and 8 students. During the viewing of pavilions, our college showcased how we are implementing the curriculum through the use of Moodle-the eLearning platform. We had a display of the site and one of the students showcased how she is able to access the content using her mobile gadget.

We also showcased the items that we use in training our students on the practical aspect in the skills lab; these were the equipment used to practice Neonatal resuscitation, the maternal simulator for Abdominal-antenatal assessment, as well as the frame used to estimate Cervical Dilatation.

Be reminded that this platform is a very important supplement to your formal learning in the curriculum. You are therefore being kindly reminded that this can also aid in your clinical learning through the availability of different resources in your various course.

Make sure that you frequently login to access the new content being added.

Kind Regards.
