It will prepare you to care for adults (of all ages), who are recovering from an accident or acute illness, learning to live with a chronic health condition or at the end of their lives. You’ll also learn how to empower people to make a difference to their own physical and mental health. This course is approved against the Nursing and Midwifery Council Standards of Proficiency for Registered Nurses. These standards set out the knowledge and skills you will learn as the next generation of adult nurses, to enable you to deliver high-quality, evidence-based, compassionate care.
