An Adult Nursing degree can lead you to an immensely rewarding career working in settings ranging from A&E and surgical wards to hospices, GP practices and people's own homes. This Adult Nursing with Foundation Year degree is fully accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), providing eligibility for registration as a nurse on successful completion of the course.* Key Course Benefits Coventry’s ‘learning through exploration’ approach aims to provide an exceptional learning environment. You will have the opportunity to be taught using a range of scenarios using the latest technology to role play various evolving clinical situations. Study in the state-of-the-art Alison Gingell Building which features hospital wards, operating theatre, critical care settings, community housing and other real-life nursing environments relevant to practice. You will be encouraged to immerse yourself in learning about the needs of populations, individuals, related health, and nursing services with an emphasis on using research to enhance and improve services. This course aims to prepare you for the dynamic and fast-changing health and social care system, which should help you to develop into an adaptable, flexible, reflective, competent, and compassionate practitioner. From the outset, you will gain hands-on experience under supervision from qualified practice supervisors and assessors. We have well-established links with local partner NHS trusts and other healthcare providers, such as private hospitals, hospices, and community settings. While the course has a clear focus on nursing adults, a key benefit of our curriculum is the notion of collaboration across all areas of health and social care. Your studies can be complemented with significant insights into mental health, learning disability and children and young people’s nursing. *Additional costs may apply.
