The clinical experience will be predominantly in Maternal and Child Health Centres supported by an experienced practitioner where students will conduct individual consultations, home visits and group sessions. Students will consolidate and refine their clinical skills in physical assessment for children aged birth to 6 years, perform psychosocial screening with new mothers and facilitate community linkages.
