Descriptions
Terveydenhoitajan tutkinto on kaksoistutkinto, josta valmistuvat laillistetaan sekä sairaanhoitajana että terveydenhoitajana terveydenhuollon ammattihenkilöiksi. Opintojen aikana suoritetaan yleissairaanhoitajan osaamisvaatimusten mukaiset opinnot (180 op, 2013/55/EU) sekä terveydenhoitajatyön ammattiopinnot (60 op).
Terveydenhoitajan osaaminen perustuu monitieteiseen, alati uudistuvaan ja laaja-alaiseen tietoperustaan, käytännölliseen osaamiseen sekä sosiaalisiin taitoihin. Yleisenä tavoitteena on kouluttaa terveydenhuoltoon osaavaa ammattihenkilöstöä, joka moniammatillisen yhteistyön osaajana turvaa väestölle yhdenvertaiset ja potilasturvallisuuden takaavat palvelut.
Terveydenhoitajatyön näkökulma on terveyden edellytyksiä tukeva ja luova, terveyttä ylläpitävä sekä sairauksia ennaltaehkäisevä toiminta. Terveydenhoitajatutkintoon johtavassa koulutuksessa saavutetaan vahva terveydenhoitajatyön, terveyden edistämisen ja kansanterveystyön ammattitaito.
