Are you good with people? Do you have a strong caring nature? Could you meet the challenges of a changing healthcare environment?<br/><br/>Nursing is a rewarding career, and this training will make you highly employable. You’ll work with people who have a diverse range of health conditions, including individuals facing challenging life events.<br/><br/>On our MSc Nursing course, you’ll learn how to deliver care to people with acute and complex care needs. At the same time, you’ll discover a range of settings where care takes place, such as at home. Adult nurses also lead and improve care while working with other professionals to get the best outcome for their clients.<br/><br/>You’ll get the opportunity to practice what you’ve learnt on supervised work placements. By the time you graduate, you’ll have developed the knowledge and skills to help plan, coordinate and deliver care in a safe, compassionate and effective way.

These values, enshrined within the NHS Constitution, have been developed by patients, the public and staff to inspire passion in the NHS, guide it in the 21st century, and provide common ground for cooperation in achieving shared aspirations.<br/><br/>**How youll study**<br/>The programme places emphasis on independent learning, supported by classroom-based sessions and the use of technology enhanced learning.
