Course Summary

This course is run at our West London campus but it is also offered at the Berkshire Institute for Health in Fountain House, our campus based in the heart of Reading. As you will spend half your course gaining experience on placement, you should choose a course location that you can travel to easily. Please see the course detail below for our London placement partners.

This course is approved against the Nursing and Midwifery Council Future Nurse: 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 world class person-centred, evidence-based care.

Are you ready to make a difference and embark on a rewarding career in nursing? This new course 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. On completion of the course you’ll be eligible to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as an Adult Nurse.
