Courses
Start your journey into nursing with training from one of the leading providers in the North West. Here you can take advantage of top facilities, including our new Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre, home to human patient simulators which can imitate a range of symptoms.
Pick from four specialist pathways – adult, child, learning disabilities, and mental health. Whichever one you choose, your degree will be accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council and half of your time will be spent in practice in hospitals and community settings. Thanks to our connections, we offer a range of placement locations in the NHS and private sector.
- Kickstart your career as soon as you graduate. You’ll be eligible to register as a qualified nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council in your chosen field of nursing.
- Benefit from our links to NHS hospitals and community trusts and with healthcare providers in the private and voluntary sector. Our network gives you the chance to learn across a variety of health care settings across the region.
- Improve your technical knowledge, ability to give a quick diagnosis and teamwork skills with our patient simulators. They’re capable of showing conditions such as sepsis and represent a range of ages from infant to adult.
