Studying Learning Disabilities Nursing at Kingston University is your chance to help others. Take the first step towards improving health outcomes for children and adults with a range of mental and physical needs.
You’ll be part of a small, enthusiastic cohort, learning from a dynamic teaching team. You’ll learn from researchers and experts, from practice and the Department of Health.
Studying Learning Disabilities Nursing at Kingston will give you a strong foundation for a career with real, life-enhancing impact. Graduates from this course are highly sought after, with previous students working as specialist nurses, nurse therapists, community nurses and in senior management.
During the course, you’ll learn about the factors affecting people's health and wellbeing. You’ll explore the health inequalities in society. And, importantly, you’ll consider how we can improve outcomes for people with learning disabilities.
Your course will combine placements, simulated learning and classroom teaching. In doing so, you’ll develop the skills, values and knowledge you need to manage complex conditions effectively.
When you graduate, you’ll be a registered learning disabilities nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). You’ll even receive a £5,000 per year, non-repayable NHS Training Grant to support your studies. Check out the NHS Business Service Authority website to find out more.
