Three new professors to conduct research in nursing and care at Denmark’s youngest university hospital
How do we engage with families of children with life-threatening illnesses? How can we strengthen patient involvement? And can we ease transitions for those who are particularly vulnerable? These are some of the questions that three newly appointed professors of nursing will explore at Zealand University Hospital (SUH), which, with a total of five professorships at the University of Southern Denmark, is now home to one of the country’s strongest research environments for clinical nursing.
