RCSI Medical University of Bahrain

The School of Nursing & Midwifery in RSCI Bahrain was formed in 2006 and since then many nurses have graduated from the university. The work of the school includes accreditation, teaching and examination, nursing research, community engagement, developing policies and procedures - all of which contribute to best practice. The school has been a strong advocate for nursing and in promoting nursing as a career. Since the first undergraduate nursing programme in 2006 there has been a 150% increase in the number of young Bahraini people entering nursing. The School in recognizing its responsibility to contribute to national and international nursing discourse in Bahrain is working towards setting up a Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau.
