This course is aimed at those who already have a degree and some prior healthcare experience, and are committed to providing excellence in care to adult patients. Students are expected to demonstrate the Chief Nursing Officer's six C's of nursing - care, compassion, competence, communication, courage and commitment - as they learn how to deliver outstanding healthcare in a supportive environment. The course offers an enquiry-based, person-centred approach, building on your existing skills for learning. It also incorporates shared learning with other disciplines and professions, developing your clinical leadership skills and preparing you for practice. Students benefit from learning with manikins, allowing them to gain confidence before working with real patients, as well as allowing them to experience simulated scenarios which might not occur in practice; for example cardiac arrests or critical illness. Healthcare experience is essential to meet the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) advanced standing requirements for this course. This will involve demonstrating a basic level of care experience (under supervision) through the submission of an online portfolio of evidence. Nursing graduates enjoy careers in a diverse range of settings, including both the NHS and the private, voluntary and independent sector, either locally or further afield. Nurses are the largest group of staff in the NHS and you may choose to pursue a career in clinical care, teaching and research, or management.
