Further information
At least 12 ECTS of the parish work placement (HAR2102A20S + HAR8011A20S) is carried out in diaconal work at a local parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland.
6 ECTS of the work placement is included in the work placement of registered nurse studies, which is why the work placement coordinator within the parish is a deaconess.
