If you're a highly motivated graduate with care experience who wishes to become a registered children’s nurse and gain an MSc in an accelerated two year timeframe, the MSc Nursing graduate entry programme is perfect for you. The aim of the MSc Nursing programme is to develop Children’s Nurses who are inquisitive, questioning, clinically astute, empowered, cognitively adaptable, and able to respond to current and future needs of health care delivery. The programme will prepare students to care for children and young people with mental, physical, cognitive or behavioural health challenges. MSc Children's Nursing students will learn how to put children, young people and their families at the centre of their care.
The MSc Nursing programme reflects the changing delivery of health care, whereby services are designed around the needs of children, young people, and their families, with services focussing on the whole child not just their illness. Children and young people receive nursing care in a range of settings including home, school and hospital and therefore the programme will provide students with a wide range of practice placements, in order to understand the healthcare experience of children and young people in different settings. The programme builds your academic skill sets, professional responsibility and technical complexity related to patient care throughout the two years.
Successful completion of this innovative programme will ensure you will meet the registration requirements of the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
