Nursing education and advanced technologies

Nursing education has undergone significant changes in its training programs for several decades with the purpose of ensuring quality care and adjusting to organizational and technological changes in healthcare systems . We employ both quantitative and qualitative methods to explore nurse and nursing students’ role as leading the therapeutic process . As such, examining their training and skills during their studies is crucial.

Dr. Warshawski , at the Department of Nursing, School of Health Professions, serves as the Head of the Baccalaureate Nursing program. She is a registered nurse and holds a post-basic professional license as a Pediatric and Preterm Intensive Care Nurse. Dr. Warshawski received her Master’s degree in Nursing from Tel Aviv University and a Ph.D. in Health Sociology from Ben -Gurion University. Her doctorate was one of the first in Israel that focused on Interprofessional collaboration between healthcare teams in hospitals.

Understanding students’ needs and competencies accompanied by the integration of novel teaching methods may improve students’ learning experience, confidence and professional skills . These may bring about improved treatment outcomes .
