[仁安醫院護士學校] 普通科護理高級文憑(登記護士)課程
「過去一年在LiPACE就讀「護理服務文憑」課程,當中真的獲益良多。當年我的文憑試成績未合資格升讀高級文憑課程,幸好報讀了這個文憑課程,讓我能打好基礎。課程內容包括人類學和生理學的基礎知識,同學們即使沒有修讀過生物科,也能應付學習所需。課程亦提供升學導向,令我更明確知道前路和去向。我現在就讀仁安醫院護士學校普通科護理文憑(登記護士)課程,課堂上不少知識都曾在LiPACE的文憑課程學過,所以真的很感謝LiPACE老師們的教導!」
黎芷妍
很感激LiPACE給我一個追夢的機會,我在一年間學會很多護理知識,還透過課程的探訪活動跟許多「老友記」互動,我因此能在升學面試時分享各種經歷,讓我成功獲公開大學取錄修讀普通科登記護士課程。
王美玲
我很感謝老師在我學習路上的悉心教導,我在他們身上吸收到的護理知識,成為我升讀lVE「配藥學高級文憑」的重要階梯,給我一個新的發展方向。
