Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Nursing (Children's and General integrated)
Nurses play a critical role in society: they help individuals achieve, maintain or regain the best possible health, and at other times, they provide comfort, support and dignity in times of illness or death. They often work in conjunction with families, groups or the larger community.
In addition to professionalism, a nurse must practice with intelligence, compassion and enthusiasm.
In DCU’s BSc in Children’s and General Nursing course you’ll employ a combination of academic and practical learning to gain competence in clinical, theoretical, ethical, intercultural and cross-disciplinary knowledge. You’ll focus on the fundamental issues in nursing practice, and integrate these with aspects of psychology, sociology, philosophy, law, pharmacology and microbiology. You’ll also have a chance to put your new skills to practice under the guidance of registered nurses in a real-world work environment.
The specialty in Children’s Nursing will help you understand the special requirements of children in need of healthcare and how to work with their families and other healthcare professionals.
