Overview
Children’s Nursing is a professional career caring for children and young people. You’ve probably arrived at this page because you have a passion for helping children and young people. Right from the start, you’ll receive a blend of theory and practical experience. Half the children's nursing degree will be spent at the University. The other half of your time, you’ll gain real work skills in a variety of child nursing clinical settings. You’ll learn about ‘normal’ child development, and how to recognise when a child’s development is not normal. You’ll learn how to intervene and manage atypical development on our paediatric nursing degree. You’ll promote a healthy lifestyle in children, young people and their families and provide real patient care in hospital and community placements.
