Society needs people who understand the whole health and social care system. At Edge Hill, you’ll learn the skills you need to work in a range of settings and develop the empathetic mindset you need to deliver effective care. Your lecturers will share their own experiences and talk about their research on subjects like domestic abuse and nutrition.

- Finish your course with the confidence to apply theory to practice. 95.7% of our graduates are in employment or further study within 15 months (Graduate Outcomes 2017/18).
- Always get the support you need throughout your studies. At Edge Hill, we know training in the area of the caring professions can be demanding.
