Lamin DARBOE, a senior student in the English Nursing Program, presented his study titled "Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Nursing Management", which focused on the nurse's role in the care of patients with DMD. Highlighting the impact of this rare genetic disease on quality of life, the study brought attention to the significance of multidisciplinary teamwork and patient-centered care. The presentation underlined the critical role nurses play not only in providing physical care but also in offering emotional support.
Another impactful study was presented by Moses Osein SANNI, also a senior student in the English Nursing Program. His work, titled "Nursing Care in Newborns with Congenital Heart Disease: A Family-Centered Approach", explored how involving families in the care process affects nursing outcomes. The presentation emphasized that keeping families informed, offering emotional support, and involving them in decision-making processes contributes directly to the newborn’s recovery and overall care experience.
It was noted that nursing students have internalized not only clinical knowledge but also the core values of the nursing profession such as communication, empathy, and cultural sensitivity. Both studies presented at the congress strongly demonstrated the essential role of human-centered approaches in nursing care.
The participation of students on such an international academic platform was recognized as a significant achievement—contributing to both their academic development and the scientific visibility of the university.
