This course offers you an exciting opportunity to become a fully qualified children's nurse. It recognises the unique role of the children's nurse in providing physical, emotional, and psychological care and advice to children and their families.

You will be taught by experienced registered nurses who will demonstrate how interpersonal skills, relationships, care and dignity act as the focus points of the course and how these skills are necessary to work compassionately in the modern, complex healthcare world.

Nurses are an integral part of a multidisciplinary team and you study partly alongside students from other health disciplines, such as social workers, radiographers and physiotherapists. This allows you to develop team-working skills and understand the contribution of different professionals to patient care.

You learn through:

• practice learning
• self-directed study
