Course summary

Children’s nursing involves the care of premature babies, infants, children, young people and their families. As a children’s nurse you are an important member of a multi-professional team, working in partnership with parents and carers, healthy children and those experiencing acute and long-term physical and mental illness and/or disabilities. You are in a unique and privileged position and you play a key role in assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating the wide-ranging care needs of vulnerable children and their families. This requires hard work, commitment and excellent interpersonal skills. Pre-registration nursing courses are typically three years, so in order to join this two-year masters degree, you need to apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). You must produce a portfolio of evidence which confirms that you have a minimum of 500 hours of appropriate healthcare experience, either paid or voluntary. Further details about RPL, including guidance on the development of your portfolio, is sent to you upon successful completion of an interview.During the course you develop the essential knowledge and nursing skills required to care for children and their families in a variety of diverse settings, including hospital and community care. During these placements you participate in shift work, including weekends and nights.This innovative course prepares you to become a confident and competent skilled practitioner, capable of leading and managing the care of children and their families. It also helps you to become a resilient and future-ready nurse who holds strong professional values, is able to exercise clinical judgement, challenge inequality, champion diversity and uphold the integrity of the profession while delivering high quality, child-centred compassionate care.The course content reflects the changing and challenging nature of providing healthcare in the 21st century, and the evolving and diverse role of the registered nurse.
