Course Description
Through our flexible curriculum and blended learning approach – building up your theoretical knowledge of mental health care strategies, and then putting it into practice on placement with service users and providers – you’ll develop your holistic, therapeutic 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 Mental Health Nurse.
Our course gives you a robust knowledge of mental health nursing practice – as well as the wider sector – both in and outside of the classroom. It’s the perfect combination of theory and practice, allied to great facilities, modules built around the latest research, and teachers who’ve worked for years in professional healthcare. You’ll develop your nursing knowledge based around:
- A holistic view of a person’s’ psychological and physical needs to support recovery
- The chance to refine and apply your therapeutic skills
- A practice-learning environment, with simulated exercises and activities
- Placements in a variety of healthcare settings
- Some fantastic opportunities for career development.
Our nursing degree isn’t just distinguished by the amount of time you’ll spend on placement – it’s how early those placements opportunities arrive on your course. From the outset, we’ll ensure you’re in hands-on, practice-based environments, supporting local healthcare providers and putting your theoretical skills to the test. Alongside the “interprofessional” nature of our teaching – which connects you with experts from across the sector, broadening your skills and knowledge – you’ll have the perfect grounding in mental health nursing.
