Facebook post by JAMK avoin – Kyllähän jatkuva kouluttautuminen kuuluu toimenkuvaan. Osaamista kannattaa olla tällä alalla esimerkiksi mahdollisimman monen ohjelman käyttöön, kertoo avoimessa tekniikan alan opintoja tekevä Petri Koskisuo. AutoCAD, CATIA V6, 3D-tulostus...mitä osaamista sinä tarvitset?

Facebook post by JAMK University of Applied Sciences, Nursing Cooperation is the key during these exceptional times. 🙏 Despite of the thousands of kilometers between us all the 30+ participants just started the first Train-the-Trainer workshop in Beihua, as one of planned events for GeNEdu project's gerontological nursing education. This was designed by JAMK in collaboration with Tartu Health Care College, Estonia and hosted at Beihua University, China. Together with our partners we made an agile switch to remote learning. In the opening ceremony we had participants from 3 countries and high quality online programme continues the whole week.

Facebook post by JAMK University of Applied Sciences Yhteistyö kantaa poikkeusaikoinakin! 🙏 Tuhansien kilometrien päässä Kiinassa, Beihuan yliopistolla, saatiin tällä viikolla aloitettua GeNEdu-hankkeen gerontologisen hoitotyön työpajat verkkototeutuksen ansiosta. Etäyhteyksien päässä koolla on ollut osaajia kolmesta eri maasta, eikä sisällön laadusta ole tarvinnut tinkiä. Kiinassa koulutukseen osallistuu 30 hoitotyön opettajaa eri organisaatioista. Beihuassa toteutettavan koulutuksen on suunnittelut JAMK yhteistyössä Tartu Health Care College kanssa.

Facebook post by JAMK hyvinvointi Tänään vietetään WHO:n Maailman potilasturvallisuuspäivää! Vuoden 2020 teemana on ”Henkilöstön turvallisuus on potilas- ja asiakasturvallisuutta". Teeman valintaan on vaikuttanut meneillään oleva koronapandemia, joka haastaa erityisen kovin ottein sote-alaa. JAMK tekee useissa TKI-projekteissa yhteistyötä sosiaali- ja terveydenhuollon ammattilaisten kanssa tietoisuuden ja osaamisen kehittämiseksi sekä niiden parhaiden arkipäivän käytäntöjen ja toimintaohjeiden löytämiseksi, jotka lisäävät turvallisuutta vaativassa työssä. Turvallinen työntekijä, turvallinen hoito ja palvelut - hyvä tavoite onnistuneelle yhteistyölle! #Potilasturvallisuuspäivä, #PotilasJaAsiakasturvallisuus #Henkilöstönturvallisuus #jamk #tki
