Reproductive Health Nursing

Research activities are focused on the development of health education, nursing and support for reproductive health issues faced by adolescent, mature, menopausal and older women and their families.

Our research focuses include: strengthening structures to support mothers and their newborns, and exploring nursing and support methods to improve the QOL of women in all stages of their life-cycles.

Child and Family Health Care Nursing

The focus of study is on health issues and problems that occur in children, as well as the health problems and issues experienced by children with chronic disease or disability and their families. Health problems from birth to puberty are studied in order to investigate nursing approaches to deal with these problems and issues.

Critical Care Nursing

Employing physiological, sociological and psychological approaches, the study aims to deal with the nursing issues of patients and families in critical care situations due to acute disease, trauma or invasive treatment. In order to respond to the growing demand for professionals with critical care experience in a wide range of medical fields, we launched a training program for certified nurse specialists (CNS) in 2007.

Gerontological Nursing

Gerontological Nursing involves the treatment of complex physiological, social and psychological issues. Students are asked to conceptualize the health and social situations and problems faced by elderly people and their families in order to develop multi-disciplinary approaches to aging and the nursing and care of elderly people.
