BSc (Hons) Nursing / RN Mental Health
Mental health nursing is a demanding yet rewarding career. This programme will give you the knowledge and skills to aid people to have more involvement and control over their mental health by promoting and supporting people in a variety of health and social care settings.
50% of your studies will be spent in hospital and community settings, within the NHS and independent sector which includes prison placements, where you will spend time in a well-supported environment, working alongside qualified practice assessors and supervisors.
On successful completion of this course, you will have a recognised degree qualification that leads to registration as a qualified nurse, with the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
This course is delivered over three semesters per year. Throughout this course, theory and practice are integrated into each module.
You will learn about how to support people during the most acute phases of their distress, how to work with people who have issues around substance misuse or offending behaviour and how to help those with ongoing mental health conditions.
In the third year, you may have the opportunity to go on an international placement to experience care outside of the UK.
