Students travelled from areas including Townsville, the Atherton Tablelands and NSW.
Residential School and Nursing Lecturer Sandy McLellan said the students learnt about washing a patient in bed and in the shower, bedpan use, manual handling, patient observations, patient feeding, communication skills, documentation, holistic care and much more.
The students will be going on placement in Term 2 after the next residential school...
