October 14, 2025Muhammad Farhan

October 11, 2025

by Dr. Noor Azizah Mohd Ali and Muhammad Farhan Mahmud

Location: Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM, Kuantan, Pahang.

The Inbound Student Mobility Programme was successfully conducted from 15th September to 11th October 2025, continuing the strong academic partnership between the Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM and Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY), Indonesia.

This year’s programme primarily involved two key departments from KON — the Medical-Surgical Nursing (MSN) and Specialised Clinical Nursing (SCN) departments. The initiative was jointly led by Dr. Nik Noor Kaussar and her team from the MSN Department, together with Assoc. Prof. Dr. Aniawanis and her dedicated team from the Department of Special Care Nursing, Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM.

Throughout their month-long stay in Kuantan, participants engaged in a variety of academic and experiential learning activities, including:

Attending lectures and workshops alongside local nursing students.
Participating in community engagement programmes across Pahang.
Visiting health and educational institutions for clinical and cultural exposure.
Presenting case studies and collaborative projects, showcasing cross-cultural perspectives in nursing education

The programme served as a valuable platform for knowledge exchange, intercultural understanding, and professional development. It also strengthened the long-standing collaboration between IIUM and UMY — a partnership grounded in shared values of Tawhidic education, holistic care, and regional health advancement. Alhamdulillah, the programme was conducted smoothly, and it is hoped that all intended objectives have been fully achieved. Both institutions look forward to continuing this meaningful collaboration, nurturing future nurses who embody global competency and Islamic compassion.

September 29 & 30, 2025

by Muhammad Farhan Mahmud

Location: Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM

The Sultan Ahmad Shah Medical Centre @IIUM (SASMEC @IIUM), in collaboration with the Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM, has successfully conducted the Preceptorship Training for Nurses 2025, a two-day intensive programme aimed at empowering experienced nurses with enhanced mentorship, teaching, and leadership skills in clinical settings.

The event was technically supported by the Clinical Skills Centre (CSC) and gathered 26 experienced, skilled, and competent staff nurses from various wards, units, and clinics across SASMEC @IIUM. The training was meticulously designed to strengthen their roles as preceptors — professional mentors guiding junior nurses and nursing students in delivering high-quality, patient-centred care.

Day 1: Knowledge Empowerment and Collaborative Discussion

The programme began with an opening ceremony officiated by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Muhammad Kamil Che Hasan, Dean of the Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM. In his address, Dr. Muhammad Kamil emphasised the vital role of preceptors in bridging the gap between theory and practice, ensuring that nursing students are equipped not only with clinical competence but also with empathy, integrity, and professionalism in line with IIUM’s Tawhidic vision.

The first day featured a series of enriching lectures delivered by esteemed nursing scholars from the Kulliyyah of Nursing, including Dr. Siti Hazariah Abdul Hamid, Dr. Norfadzilah Ahmad, and Dr. Hasanah Pairoh. The morning sessions focused on topics such as the role of nursing preceptor in modern clinical practice, preceptorship framework and best practices, and Islamic Perspective on Teaching and Mentorship Nursing.

In the afternoon, participants were divided into four groups of team bulding to discuss real-world challenges and recurring issues faced in clinical environments. The discussions were dynamic and solution-focused, encouraging participants to explore innovative strategies in preceptorship. The groups were later tasked with preparing role-play presentations to be showcased on the second day, allowing them to creatively demonstrate problem-solving and teamwork in action.

The discussion sessions were guided by a team of facilitators led by Dr. Hanida Hani Mohd Mokhtar, alongside other experienced academic staff from the Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM.

Day 2: Interactive Learning and Role Play Excellence

The second day commenced with a series of interactive lectures delivered by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Siti Noorkhairina Sowtali, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Aniawanis Makhtar, and Dr. Ashikin Atan. Their sessions emphasised interesting topics such as, assessing student’s competence in clinical area, art on giving feedback with emotional intelligence, and, spiritual and ethical leadership in preceptorship.

Following the lectures, participants returned to the stage to perform their role-play presentations, showcasing realistic clinical mentorship scenarios that reflected their learning outcomes. Each group impressed the facilitators with their creativity, teamwork, and critical thinking in handling workplace challenges.

Closing Ceremony: Recognising Excellence and Commitment

The programme concluded with a closing ceremony, officiated by Mdm. Asmawati Che Ismail, Head of the Department of Human Resource, SASMEC @IIUM. In her remarks, she congratulated all participants for their active engagement and expressed appreciation to the Kulliyyah of Nursing for their invaluable collaboration and expertise.

The event concluded with the presentation of tokens of appreciation and certificates, celebrating the success and commitment of all involved.

“This Preceptorship Training marks another milestone in our continuous effort to build a culture of mentorship and clinical excellence at SASMEC @IIUM. We hope every participant will bring this spirit of learning and leadership back to their respective units,” said Mdm. Asmawati.

The two-day training not only strengthened the collaboration between SASMEC @ IIUM and the Kulliyyah of Nursing but also reaffirmed their shared mission to cultivate competent, compassionate, and confident nurses who embody the principles of Sejahtera and Ummatic Excellence.

Program Murid Sihat & Selamat

October 1, 2025Muhammad Farhan

September 24, 2025

by Muhammad Farhan Mahmud & Dr. Muzaitul Akma Mustapa Kamal Basha

Location: Sekolah Kebangsaan Pandan, Kuantan, Pahang.

More than 150 Level 2 primary students of Sekolah Kebangsaan (SK) Pandan, Kuantan, experienced a day filled with hands-on learning, active participation, and fun discovery during the Program Murid Sihat dan Selamat. The programme was a collective initiative by the Department of Professional Nursing Studies, Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM, led by Dr. Muzaitul Akma Mustapa Kamal Basha, following requests and discussions with SK Pandan.

This effort was supported by members of the Clinical Skills Centre (CSC) and the Department of Critical Care Nursing, Kuliyyah of Nursing, IIUM, and strengthened through the full backing of community partners – Gabungan Pelajar Melayu Semenanjung (GPMS) Paya Besar and Lepar branches, the Majlis Belia Pahang, and PERKIM. Together, the collaboration highlighted the value of partnerships in empowering young learners with essential knowledge.

A Day of Active Learning

The day began with a cheerful morning stretching exercise led by Br. Muhamad Syazwan Rostam, a fourth-year KON student, which immediately lifted the spirits of the pupils and set an energising tone for the programme. Excited chatter and laughter filled the field as the pupils followed the simple movements, enjoying the sense of togetherness. Next, the pupils were introduced to basic emergency assistance through an engaging talk delivered by Dr. Muzaitul Akma and Dr. Hasanah Pairoh. The session was short, simple, and interactive, designed to capture the children’s attention while explaining how to act during emergencies. Pupils were encouraged to ask questions, share their thoughts, and reflect on what they already knew, making the experience relatable and impactful.

Hands-On Exposure Through Learning Stations

After the introductory briefing, the pupils were divided into ten groups and rotated across 10 learning stations, each designed to demonstrate a specific emergency skill includes, seizure and syncope management, handwashing technique, bandaging, simple wound dressing, splinting and arm sling application, choking management, chest compressions and an introduction to CPR, proper handwashing, nosebleed management, early burn management. Every station was facilitated by KON lecturers and clinical instructors, assisted by volunteers from Universiti Islam Pahang Sultan Ahmad Shah (UniPSAS) and GPMS Paya Besar members. The pupils were not passive listeners – they practised bandaging each other, tried chest compressions on training manikins, and even demonstrated the correct way to stop a nosebleed under supervision. The hands-on element ensured that the knowledge gained was memorable, practical, and enjoyable. The sight of young children confidently engaging with emergency techniques highlighted how early exposure can instil awareness and resilience, even at a primary school level. Teachers observed with pride as their pupils displayed enthusiasm and curiosity at every station.

Hands-On Exposure Through Learning Stations

Evaluation, Quiz, and Joyful Learning

Before the closing session, an evaluation and short quiz were held to test the pupils’ understanding of the skills they had learned throughout the day. The quiz, designed in a fun and interactive format, allowed the pupils to answer questions, demonstrate certain techniques, and reflect on their new knowledge.
The children participated eagerly, laughing and cheering each other on. For many, the quiz became one of the highlights of the programme as it combined both learning and play. Teachers and facilitators noted that the pupils retained key knowledge and showed confidence in their responses. The activity added an element of excitement and healthy competition, ensuring that learning outcomes were achieved in a joyful atmosphere

Closing Ceremony and Partnership Agreement Signing

The programme concluded with a formal closing ceremony. Headmaster of SK Pandan, Encik Mohd Razuki Bin Daud, expressed deep appreciation to IIUM and all partners for making the programme a success:

“On behalf of SK Pandan, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to IIUM’s Kulliyyah of Nursing and all collaborators for organising such a meaningful programme. Not only did our pupils enjoy themselves, they also received valuable exposure to basic emergency care at an early age. We truly look forward to more initiatives like this in the future.”

A highlight of the day was the signing of a partnership agreement between SK Pandan and KON IIUM, symbolising the beginning of a sustainable partnership. The partnership agreement was signed by the Headmaster and Dr. Abdul Alif Abd Hamid, Deputy Dean of Student Development and Community Engagement, KON. It was witnessed by En. Abu Na’azeim Abu Talib, Assistant Secretary of Majlis Belia Negeri Pahang, and Dr. Nur Ain Mahat, Head of Department of Professional Nursing Studies, KON.

Looking Towards the Future

Programme leader Dr. Muzaitul Akma concluded the day with words of gratitude and vision:

“We are truly thankful to all facilitators, volunteers, and partners who worked tirelessly to ensure this programme’s success. In shaa Allah, we will continue with a second and third series focusing on psychological health and peer guidance among SK Pandan pupils. This is only the beginning of a long-term journey to nurture healthier, more resilient children.”

The Program Murid Sihat dan Selamat successfully combined health education, skill-building, and fun, leaving pupils motivated and empowered with essential life-saving knowledge. With strong institutional collaboration, enthusiastic volunteers, and a clear commitment to sustainability, the programme stands as a model of how academia and community organisations can work together to positively impact young lives.
