It offers unparalleled opportunities for employment and advancement to both women and men. This course will prepare students for the change in the focus of caring from the hospital to the community.

Contemporary nursing practice is based upon sound theoretical foundations in the life sciences, knowledge of interpersonal working, problem solving and ethical reasoning. The programme team work in collaboration with students to help them become the nurse they wish to become. The aim is for an informed, enthusiastic, motivated but above all competent registered nurse.
