About Course

The Specialization Course in Nursing in Pediatric Oncology and Hematology aims to qualify professionals to care for children and adolescents with oncological diseases, as well as to offer care to families.

During the course, professionals learn to identify the biological, psychosocial and humanistic aspects related to cancer. This is the only specialization course focused on qualifying nurses to work in both the areas of oncology and pediatric hematology.

There are over 456 hours of content, including theoretical activities and differentiated practical experience at the Institute for Children and Adolescents (ICr HCFMUSP). During the practical internship, students have the opportunity to apply theory to real life, improving the quality of care provided. They also develop cognitive, technical, conceptual, communication, attitudinal and ethical skills.

By having the opportunity to interact with the patient's family, students broaden their experience, which contributes to even more holistic care. All courses and classes are taught by highly qualified professors from the largest hospital in Latin America.
