The EBMT Paediatric Nursing Committee aims to facilitate connections with paediatric nurses across Europe. We would like to provide you with the opportunity to share practices and knowledge in an approachable manner by organizing an online meeting session three times a year, named 'How do you do it...'.
Our online meetings are designed to be highly interactive, providing a dynamic platform for participants to actively engage and share their valuable insights. We encourage open discussions and the exchange of real-world experiences to foster a collaborative learning environment.
