Course summary

Mental health (MH) student nurses learn about working with people of all ages experiencing a range of mental health issues in a variety of settings, addressing not only their mental health but also their physical, social and spiritual needs. MH Nurses work in a variety of settings which are reflected in the clinical placement opportunities which include child and adolescent MH, adult MH in hospital, prison and forensic services, therapeutic substance misuse services and nursing homes.
Mental health nursing at Bangor will lead you to an exciting and rewarding, though demanding, career as a mental health nurse. The course will enable you to develop your career working with people of all ages who are facing physical and mental health challenges, or living with learning disabilities, who need professional mental health nursing care.
