Course summary
Overview Learn to excel in an important and highly valued area of nursing. As a Children and Young People’s Nurse, you can have an incredibly positive impact on the lives, health and wellbeing of young people, from newborn infants through to young adults. Our unique programme includes working in tandem with other healthcare professional students, allowing you to gain a unique insight into a range of perspectives and approaches. This will help you develop the collaborative and adaptable approach that is essential to a successful nursing career. On this children and young people’s nursing course, you’ll discover the many dimensions of the health and wellbeing needs of children and young people. You’ll learn how to enable their physical, social and psychological growth and development through supporting and caring for them and their families. You’ll be taught how to care for children and young people who are acutely unwell, either mentally or physically, as well as how to promote healthy lives and prevent physical and mental ill health. You’ll also learn how to help them and their parents, guardians or carers to foster healthy behaviours contributing to positive health and well-being into young adulthood. At UEA, you’ll benefit from our innovative approach to teaching nursing, as well as from our many facilities, connections, and opportunities. You’ll be able to take advantage of a wide range of placements including hospitals, community, public health, specialist care unit settings, hospices and complex needs schools. In addition, our anatomy suite, up to date simulation skills rooms, and equipment will provide you with the practical skills necessary for a smooth transition into the workforce.
