Children's Nursing Bachelor of Nursing (with Honours) - BN (Hons)

Become a flexible practitioner caring for children, young people, and their families in a variety of settings as part of an interprofessional approach to care. 

This is a dynamic, interactive professional course which places the needs of children and their families, and Children’s Nursing practice at its centre. However, as a nurse for the future the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) expect you to provide care for people from all fields of nursing, so we will enhance your knowledge and skills in relation to caring for adults (including older people), those with mental health conditions and those with learning disabilities. 

The work of a children’s nurse can range from caring for a sick new-born baby or caring for a teenager with complex physical or psychological needs, to observing the development of a child or caring for a young person who has injured themselves. 

The Programme Team are committed to supporting students to realise their potential to become compassionate, competent and autonomous Children’s Nurses, able to meet current and future healthcare demands. 

Nursing and midwifery courses require clinical placements and strict safeguarding, so students must be at least 18 at the course start to meet professional standards and fully take part in all required activities.
