Home Nursing Course

Before I actually join nursing, I went to a short course on Home Nursing.
This course was organize by the St. John Ambulance which is one of the organisation I joined.

Home nursing is practically nursing at home.
It covers simple porcedures such as bed bath and taking temperature, giving bedpans and serving diets.
