Nursing associates contribute to most aspects of care, including delivery and monitoring, and work together with the healthcare teams to deliver the best and safest care.This 2-year programme, validated by the Nursing and Midwifery council, equips students with the skills, knowledge and confidence to care for patients across the 4 fields of nursing in various settings.
