Adult nurses need to be able to demonstrate competence in the fundamentals of nursing care across the patient's lifespan. We recognise that as the context of healthcare delivery is changing, it is essential for nurses to be able to work flexibly, inter-professionally and collaboratively in a way that is meaningful and relevant.
The Adult (Nursing) program offered by the Oxford Brookes University provides the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to influence improvements in practice, and support them to develop their own professional responsibility towards advancing the profession.
