What you will study
On this course, you’ll learn to care for infants, children and young people, in a variety of settings. You’ll also see how to support and educate families, so they can be involved in their child’s care.
In your first year, you’ll study topics that are fundamental to children’s nursing, including the fundamental concepts of caring such as communication, anatomy and physiology, and public health promotion, ensuring you have a solid foundation upon which to build the rest of your degree.
During your second year, you’ll build upon the knowledge gained in your first year with more complex concepts and exploration of children and young people who are acutely unwell. You’ll gain a more in-depth appreciation for safeguarding as well as developing your understanding of research and the application of evidence.
In your third year, you’ll develop your decision-making and leadership skills and will gain an interesting perspective into how psychosocial, spiritual, ethical and legal influences have an impact on the way patient care is provided. You’ll learn about complex and chronic conditions affecting infants, children and young people and how care decisions impact the holistic delivery of care.
