Course summary

This award acknowledges that students are being prepared to enter a practice-based profession at a level beyond first registration as a nurse and or midwife. This award is practice centred. This award is both an academic and community practice-based learning programme that combines practice learning and development throughout all the core modules. This will enable you to acquire new knowledge, skills, and behaviours in a distinct profession (SCPHN HV). As you progress through the programme you will apply, strengthen, and consolidate new and existing knowledge via university attendance or via virtual online synchronous and asynchronous learning, with the remainder of time completed in the practice environment (Community / Primary Care Setting) (detailed further in the course calendar).

A distinctive feature of a PGD SCPHN award is that it is led and co- designed by employers / service users, stakeholders, and commissioners to reflect employer and regional needs. At the University of Wolverhampton, we are committed to working in partnership with local employers / commissioners / service users to ensure that our SCPHN (HV) programme provides the opportunity to develop the workforce and SpecialistCommunity Public Health Nurses, Health Visitors of the future. Whilst ensuring that our programmedevelopment responds to diverse and emerging employer priorities, we also ensure and satisfy therequirements for assuring academic standards and any legal requirements, meeting the professional,statutory, or regulatory body requirements (NMC, 2022).
