Take the first steps towards your career as a both a Children’s and Learning Disabilities Nurse
In 2023, we won two awards at the Student Nursing Times Awards, including Teaching Innovation of the Year for our simulated public health elective. This was part of our annual student nursing electives programme, which was also nominated for the Best Student Experience award, where students are supported to organise their own national or international placement of their choosing.
Throughout this course, you will be taught by our Simulated Learning and Clinical Skills Team. You will learn clinical skills fundamental to deliver high-quality care to patients in all fields of nursing within clinical, community and practice health settings.
Our award-winning simulation suite (Student Nursing Times Awards 2019) offers a wide range of realistic environments to learn in. These include hospital wards and community settings, with service users who play patients or relatives.
By taking part in award-winning innovative simulations with role players and full body manikins, you will develop the knowledge, skills, values and behaviours needed for safe and effective patient care.
