Care, compassion, competence, communication, courage and commitment: these core NHS values are embedded in our teaching. The World Health Organisation has declared 2020 as “Year of the Nurse”, recognising the huge part they play in day-to-day healthcare. It’s an important and deeply rewarding role.

Through our flexible curriculum and blended learning approach – building up your theoretical knowledge, and then putting it into practice on placement – you’ll develop your holistic, clinical and decision-making skills in line with the demands of modern nursing. Taught by experienced practitioners – and with the additional input of service users and carer groups – you’ll learn from the very best on your journey towards accreditation as a Registered Adult Nurse.

With the House of Commons Health Committee announcing the need for 22,000 new nurses by 2021 – and NHS England raising funding to £20.5 billion – the opportunities for young professionals in the healthcare sector are huge. As a graduate, you could pursue a career as a:

• Registered Adult Nurse
• Community / District Nurse
• Practice Nurse
• Sister / Charge Nurse
• Matron
• Clinical Nurse Specialist
• Advanced Nurse Practitioner
• Consultant Nurse
• Lead Nurse

From here, you’ll be able to practice as an adult nurse – and with the networking opportunities you’ll get on your placements, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to build a professional reputation with healthcare providers across the region.
