Children’s nurses work with people from a diverse range of cultures and backgrounds challenging inequalities and social injustices often linked with disadvantages which can negatively impact on their health and wellbeing.
On this course you will develop as a confident, critically thinking children’s nurse who can provide physical, emotional and psychological care and support to children, young people and their families.
Throughout your studies, you’ll actively engage with contemporary research and gain a solid understanding of how to promote health and educate children and their families or carers how to live healthier lifestyles. You’ll learn how to assess, lead, co-ordinate and deliver compassionate, sensitive and culturally-informed care to children and their families at home, in the community or in hospital.
You’ll build your knowledge and skills of therapeutic interventions and the pharmacological management of disease, including the safe administration of medication.
You’ll learn and practise your clinical skills in a safe and controlled environment through teaching sessions in dedicated facilities, including clinical suites and replicated community settings, supported by digital health technologies.
Through shared learning opportunities and collaboration with students from related disciplines, you’ll develop your ability to appreciate the contribution other healthcare professionals make to people’s care and health outcomes. Service users and carers will also contribute to your learning through their lived experience of health and social care services.
Placements In each year of the programme, you will spend 50% of the time on campus studying theory and clinical skills in the safe environment of our simulation suites and 50% in real-world practice, on placement in healthcare settings with local NHS trusts or in private or voluntary organisations.
Practice placement blocks are 37.5 hours per week and there are two 11-week blocks in each year of the programme. During this time, you’ll be supported by experienced practice supervisors and assessors who will provide tailored feedback, and you’ll complete an online portfolio to monitor your progress and achievements while on placement.
