At the end of 12 weeks, participants will be well equipped with knowledge skills and competencies to feed, bath and groom patients thereby contributing enormously to their sense of normalcy and wellbeing.

The first four weeks or month will be theory, while clinical placements will run for the remaining eight weeks or two months.

… Clinal placements will be at the United Bulawayo Hospitals (UBH) and Mpilo Central Hospital.
