Overview

Registered Nurses work in the NHS, the independent and voluntary sector in a variety of healthcare settings including a hospital, someone’s home, in the community, social care or in public health. A Registered Nurse interacts with a variety of service users, families and carers, and with an extensive range of health and care professionals and other agencies including social services, police, probation, prisons, housing, education, language interpreters and third sector agencies. They work with, support and facilitate the learning of a range of individuals from other health and care professions. Nurses usually work various shift patterns which enable care to be provided 24 hours per day, seven days per week, 365 days of the year. Registered Nurses are a key part of the multidisciplinary teams that meet the integrated health and care needs of patients and service users. The course is approved by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and is designed to ensure apprentices leave the programme as skilled, effective, safe nurses who deliver high quality care. At the University of Bedfordshire there are three fields of the BSc (Hons) Registered Nurse degree apprenticeship available, alongside two fields of the MSc Registered Nurse degree apprenticeship. These are: Each apprentice will be supported by a named apprenticeship coordinator. These are members of the course academic team who provide personal support specifically for apprentices, in a similar role to a personal tutor. In addition to their personal tutor role, apprenticeship coordinators facilitate the 12 weekly tripartite meetings. They are also the apprentices’ first port of call if they have any queries. Apprenticeship coordinators help apprentices to establish specific learning outcomes and support them to link theory to practice. Apprenticeship coordinators work closely with the clinical staff who are undertaking clinical support and assessment of apprentice.
