Mental Health Nursing - BN (Hons)

Make a unique contribution to the health and wellbeing of those experiencing, or at risk of developing mental health problems on this pre-registration nursing course. Mental health nursing is a specialist professional course that enables you to make a unique contribution to the health and wellbeing of people of all ages who experience, or may be at risk of developing, mental health issues. However, as a nurse for the future, the Nursing and Midwifery Council 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), children and those with learning disabilities. This is a dynamic, interactive professional course which places the needs of service patients and their families, and Mental Health Nursing practice, at its centre. The Programme Team are committed to supporting students to realise their potential to become compassionate, competent and autonomous Mental Health Nurses, who are 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.
