Nursing Practice (Adult) at Staffordshire University

Nursing is one of the most rewarding, exciting and valued professions. Our Nursing Practice (Adult) course will give you the essential skills and internationally recognised qualification you need to work as a caring, committed, competent and compassionate healthcare professional all over the world.

Our course:

• reflects the core values of the NHS throughout the curriculum.
• is accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).
• is a practice-led programme supported by an innovative Practice Engagement Model.
• centres around an evidenced-based, value-driven philosophy.
• develops independence in learning.
• offers diverse practical and theoretical learning opportunities.

Half your study time will be spent gaining real-world experience in NHS placements at hospital and community-based settings across two counties. Here you’ll be able to develop your evidence-based clinical skills, critical thinking and leadership skills within a varied learning environment.

Your placements will be selected due to future career relevance, rather than location, so you may need to travel for your working experience.
