Our expert lecturers will help you develop the required knowledge and skills to deliver care to patients of district nursing services. You will also learn essential leadership skills and how to head up your own team of staff responsible for this provision.

We have a 50:50 theory and practice element to our degree, meaning half of your learning time will be spent in practical work placements, where you will be assessed by qualified practitioners. We are proud to report our work placements often result in employment, with our students regularly being recruited through the trusts they are seconded/ sponsored by.

Nursing skills theory is taught and assessed in our four, state-of-the-art laboratories on campus. Learning clinical skills in laboratories ensures that our students develop competence in a safe, protected environment. Your studies with us will enable you to explore and debate policy, theory and research related to district nursing, all within the public health context.

We offer strong support to all our students. We aim to help you deliver and lead district nursing services safely and effectively at individual, group and community levels. Our top up degree fully prepares you to innovatively promote health and wellbeing, while proactively preventing ill health within the context of contemporary local and national policy.
