BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing (Top Up)
Adult Nursing specialises in caring for and supporting vulnerable adults in a variety of settings including hospital, community and the independent and voluntary sectors.
Nursing is a challenging profession, both mentally and physically, which carries a great deal of responsibility. Adult Nurses care for people across the lifespan including young adults and others with acute and long-term illnesses. They work as part of a multi-disciplinary team alongside doctors, physiotherapists, anaesthetists, pharmacists, dieticians and many others.
This course provides an equal balance of theory and practice learning with placements in both the hospital and community settings. We believe immersing our students in the reality of the profession as they train better prepares them for the challenges of nursing practice upon qualification. Developing highly employable, accountable nurses.
You will learn how to assess the needs of the patient, communicate effectively with professional colleagues, and provide sensitive support for the patient and their families. You will also develop leadership and management skills required to motivate and supervise others.
Studying for this accelerated degree programme will enable you to develop your skills and experience alongside experienced nursing students on our three year programme. You will be taught in mixed groups , joining the existing cohort in the middle of their second year of study.
