On March 10, 2026, the Princess Agrarajakumari Faculty of Nursing warmly welcomed a study visit delegation from the University of Hyogo at the Community Learning and Health Service Center (Warm Community Nursing Clinic).
The purpose of the visit was to learn about the Warm Community Nursing Clinic, the first community nursing clinic established by an educational institution under the Princess Agrarajakumari Faculty of Nursing. The clinic serves as a model for integrating the faculty’s educational mission with health service delivery in the primary healthcare system.
The delegation was graciously welcomed by Associate Professor Dr. Tasana Boontong, Dean of the Princess Agrarajakumari Faculty of Nursing, together with Assistant Professor Dr. Prapa Yuttrai, Dean for Academic Services, and Ajarn Laddawan Vaisurasingh, Dean for Planning, Strategy, and Development.
On this occasion, Ajarn Ratchaneeporn Na Thalang, Director of the Community Learning and Health Service Center (Warm Community Nursing Clinic), led the delegation on a field visit to observe the clinic’s comprehensive service system, including primary medical care, basic nursing services, health promotion and disease prevention, and continuing home healthcare.
The delegation also visited the Theppratan community in Don Mueang District, Bangkok, where they observed home visits for service recipients. This activity is part of the course NURS 82824 Community Health Nursing Practicum, offered in the second semester of academic year 2025 for second-year students in the Bachelor of Nursing Science Program for graduates from other disciplines. During the practicum, students provide nursing care for individuals and families, with emphasis on health promotion, disease prevention, healthcare, and rehabilitation for individuals, families, groups, and communities. The home visit activities were presented to the delegation by Ajarn Anongnut Sarachan, clinical instructor.
In addition, members of the Healthy Elderly Club joined in welcoming the visitors and organized activities to promote mindfulness and creativity, including doll painting on plaster figures, as well as exercise activities designed to enhance muscle strength through combined movements using resistance bands. These activities greatly impressed the delegation and provided a valuable opportunity for mutual learning and exchange on healthcare service systems that support the well-being of the people, while also strengthening international collaboration networks for the future.
