 جامعة الزرقاء - طلبة التمريض بجامعة الزرقاء ينفذون سلسلة مبادرات توعوية لخدمة المجتمع

As part of the Faculty of Nursing's commitment to enhancing students' role in community service and spreading health awareness, students in the "Clinical Community Health" course implemented a series of field awareness activities in several health centers and educational and community institutions.

These initiatives, supervised by a select group of faculty members, included a series of educational workshops and events. These included a workshop titled "Maternal Awareness: Fetal Safety", which aimed to raise awareness of the risks of preeclampsia and ways to prevent it. An activity titled "For Your Child... Vaccinate Them", which focused on the importance of vaccinations for children and their role in preventing infectious diseases, was also held.

An event titled "I Can", which aimed to enhance self-confidence among people with special needs, was also held. An awareness activity titled "Your Smile Starts with Clean Teeth", highlighted the importance of oral and dental hygiene and maintaining overall oral health.

The activities concluded with the "A Drop of Milk... Life" event, which addressed the importance of breastfeeding and its health benefits for mothers and children, including immunity, growth, and proper nutrition.

Dr. Ahmed Rayyan, the Dean of the Faculty of Nursing, emphasized that health awareness and community education are among the most prominent roles that nursing students must play. These activities not only contribute to community service, but also enhance students' practical skills and their ability to apply theoretical knowledge in real-life situations.

He pointed out that the Faculty of Nursing at Zarqa University believes in its humanitarian and educational mission and works to prepare a conscientious nursing cadre capable of making a positive impact in their environment.

These activities are part of the university's vision to link academics with practical realities, promote the values ​​of active citizenship among students, and build a healthy and conscious society.
