Child Health Nursing Laboratory

The Child Health Nursing Laboratory is a well-structured and fully equipped skill development unit designed to provide students with hands-on training in pediatric nursing care. The laboratory offers a safe and simulated clinical environment where students develop competency in caring for infants, children, and adolescents.

The lab is designed as per MUHS and INC guidelines to enhance psychomotor skills, clinical judgment, and confidence before students enter real pediatric clinical settings such as NICU, PICU, and pediatric wards.

The main focus of the laboratory is to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and clinical practice through demonstration, simulation, and return demonstration techniques.

 Objectives of the Laboratory

  • To develop practical skills in Child Health Nursing procedures.
