The nursing profession requires competence in professional interaction and communication, empathy, as well as a careful and responsible work attitude.

In the beginning, the studies will mostly be conducted in English, with Finnish language teaching gradually taking over. After graduation, you will be able to work smoothly and patient-safely in the Finnish-speaking nursing environment. You have strong practical skills and you are capable of planning, implementing, evaluating and developing the nursing of patients and clients of different ages. You work as a nursing expert in multiprofessional teams.
