Course Description
If you are an empathetic, kind and caring person looking for a rewarding career, then children’s nursing could be for you.
You’ll learn from our experienced lecturers and technicians using state-of-the-art simulation facilities, coupled with time out on clinical placement. This combined learning approach of theory and practice will prepare you to provide safe, compassionate care and become a confident nurse.
Why study this subject?
Children and young people need nurses who understand their particular needs and can work in partnership with them and their families. No two days within this job are the same – paediatric nursing can take you from the intensive care of a new-born baby with breathing problems, to looking after a six-foot tall adolescent whose leg has been broken. It can also cover a range of settings, from the hospital to the child's own home.
To support your studies, the UK Government are continuing to provide children’s nursing students with a payment of at least £5,000 a year which will not need to be paid back through the NHS Learning Support Fund.
Why study at Buckinghamshire New University?
We've been running nursing programmes for many years and students benefit from an excellent standard of teaching provided by staff from the University. Our lecturers maintain close links with practice, ensuring that the programme is always kept up to date.
Alongside your studies, you will take part in a range of clinical placements with our NHS partner hospitals and homes. We work with a range of partners across the region and our students are highly respected whilst out in practice. The main NHS Trusts we are currently working with include: Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust, Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, Milton Keynes Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, West Midlands NHS Trusts.
As a BNU student, you will automatically become a member of Bucks Students’ Union giving you access to a wide range of services that we offer for free as part of our exclusive Big Deal package – including joining the Nursing Society. We are the only university in the UK to offer our members free access to such a diverse and exciting range of activities, allowing them to experience new things, socialise with broader groups of people and boost their employability.
What facilities can I use?
We utilise state-of-the-art simulation facilities for learning, development and practicing of skills – our purpose-built wards include real equipment, just like you’d find in hospital. Simulation is an important aspect of our nursing and healthcare programmes. You will regularly spend time in the simulation labs, taking part in realistic scenarios to practise a broad spectrum of technical skills in a safe and supportive environment.
What will I study?
During your time on the programme, you will understand the theory behind diagnosis that can help you to make crucial decisions when looking after a patient. You will be able to lead changes in practice, improving the quality of delivery of care. On placement, you’ll be able to put your theory into practice where you’ll be mentored in the art of patient care.
Employability
On successful completion of the programme, you will be eligible to register as a Registered Nurse with the NMC. With this qualification, you may find employment within the NHS or with private healthcare providers.
