Dr Malizo Mpehle Memorial Hospital Nursing School Application 2023-2024

Welcome to the page where you can find all the information you need to apply online to the Dr. Malizo Mpehle Memorial Hospital Nursing School. Online applications are accepted by Dr. Malizo Mpehle Memorial Hospital Nursing School.

Lilitha Nursing Training College’s Dr. Malizo Mpehle Memorial Hospital Nursing School is a sub-campus. One of South Africa’s best nursing schools is Lilitha Nursing College.

The 2003 Education and Training of Nurses and Midwives Act 4 established Lilitha College of Nursing. The Act was intended to:

• Eliminate the various pieces of apartheid legislation that were responsible for the establishment of the various nursing colleges in the Eastern Cape Province;
• Create a single college with five main campuses and 19 sub-campuses spread out throughout the Eastern Cape Province to meet the needs of the EC health system for nurse education.

The health system’s needs and priorities, as well as the EC Province’s demographics, inform the offered programs. The college offers specialist programs in addition to basic and post-basic nursing programs. It has consistently resulted in a large number of nurses being permanently assigned to the province’s clinical services. The college values academic excellence in education, putting generations of disciplinary knowledge to use in nursing practice and research on human experiences with health, illness, and healing. It also uses Community-Based and Evidence-Based practice, which focuses on holistic relationships centered on a caring approach that helps people feel better.

Dr. Malizo Mpehle Memorial Hospital Nursing School: How to Apply for Admission and the Application Form for 2023 and 2024

• The recruitment and selection of students in the Eastern Cape must address the severe nursing shortage in the Province, particularly in the remote rural areas, and ensure that nursing education programs are accessible to candidates from both urban and rural areas.

GENERAL NOTES

For admission to higher certificate or diploma programs and candidates’ educational certificates, prospective students must meet the statutory minimum requirements based on the National Senior Certificate (NSC) or an equivalent school leaving certificate.

• Levels and symbols obtained during the June/September exams for Grade 12 or confirmation that the current employer is processing study leave will be used to determine provisional admission. However, Lilitha College of Nursing’s final decision will be based on the applicant’s final grade 12 results, confirmation that the applicant has been granted study leave by the employer, and evidence that the applicant has not yet reached the pensionable age (55-60), which is required for all college programs.
  For each program, there are specific requirements. The Admission Point System, or APS, is used to assign points to your NSC or equivalent subjects:

Admission Point System

For instance, in order to enroll in a Basic Diploma, you must have a minimum APS of 18 and an NSC/equivalent pass in Biology/Life Science at Level 4 or the D Symbol, as well as English at Level 3 or the E Symbol.

The applicant has met the requirements for admission to the Diploma as she is above 18 points

Even if you meet the minimum requirements, you won’t automatically be accepted into the program or registered. Tests and interviews will be required of candidates in order to further screen them.
  Candidates who have post-matriculant experience or a certificate related to health will be registered according to the quota for that group, which is as follows:
  Scholars: 50% of candidates who hold a certificate from pre-NSC Grade 12: 20% of candidates who have post-matric experience or a certificate related to health: 10% of Active Duty Officers: 20% will make significant investments in nurses for ECDoH facilities;
