About this course
This 4 year integrated degree provides a route to nurse registration for those who do not have the required qualifications to access the BN Nursing directly. It is attractive to mature learners who may have been out of education for some years or for those who are unable to demonstrate the required skills or knowledge to start their study at level 4. It will provide the skills, knowledge and confidence to progress to the Degree in nursing.
Placing the needs of patients and carers, students and mental health nursing practice at its centre, this is a dynamic and interactive professional course. We will support you to realise your potential to become a compassionate, competent and autonomous nurse who is able to deliver and lead mental health nursing care within an ever-changing health and social care environment.
The course enables you to develop and display the values required in modern healthcare: working together with patients; respect and dignity; commitment to quality of care; compassion and improving lives. It also addresses contemporary challenges such as the ageing population, increasingly prevalent long-term health conditions and public health.
Drawing on the most up-to-date research and evidence, you are supported to develop not only your nursing skills but also the graduate attributes required to succeed in the modern workplace.
In your first year, you will be based on campus. As you progress on from your first year, your time will be split equally between learning theory on campus and applying your knowledge during placements alongside experienced professionals. You study a range of academic core modules and field modules based on theory and practice experiences. As you progress through the course, programme content becomes increasingly complex as your knowledge grows.
Accreditation
The University of Winchester is an Approved Education Institution (AEI) by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). On successful completion of this 4‐year programme you will be eligible to seek admission to part 1 of the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) register.
