Introduction to the Program

TECH's Internship program will bring you up to speed on the main devices for monitoring bleeding and other hematological conditions in children and adolescents"

Over the last few years, advances in pediatric hematology have multiplied. These innovations have been followed by much more complex assistance procedures. In turn, the nursing staff must be up to date on all these innovations in order to assist the physician in interventions such as hematopoietic cell transplantation, hospital and remote monitoring of hemorrhagic symptoms, among other functions. However, the solidity of this discipline is faltering in an academic context that does not offer professionals sufficient options to develop skills that must be applied in the daily healthcare setting. Most of the programs that reflect the latest trends in this area of health care only emphasize theoretical considerations.

TECH, in its eagerness to offer the most suitable training to each student, has designed a pioneering educational modality in its type. The program devotes 3 weeks to face-to-face, intensive and immersive learning of the latest strategies in Pediatric Hematology Service Nursing. Over the course of 3 weeks, the graduate will move to a prestigious medical facility where they will implement state-of-the-art procedures, dedicated to favoring early diagnosis of patients, ensuring the most appropriate treatment and monitoring health variables, according to the criteria of the best physicians.

All these skills will be developed from the approach to real patients from the first day of academic preparation. This linkage will be supervised by an assistant tutor of high prestige, who will also be in charge of inserting tasks of greater complexity throughout the learning process. Likewise, the nurse will be able to discuss procedures and techniques with colleagues of greater prestige and knowledge. After completing the 120 hours of this Internship program, the student will be ready to implement a high quality and rigorous healthcare practice.
