You’ll practise your skills in acute settings, including children's wards, children’s hospitals, accident and emergency departments, and neonatal intensive care.
You'll be taught by a team who understand what it is like be a child nurse and are able to demonstrate the latest techniques and procedures, supporting you to put these skills into practice. You’ll learn online through seminars and group work, and you can become part of an online community, showcasing your work, establishing relationships with tutors, and collaborating with peers. You can also borrow a clinical skills kit, familiarising yourself with some fundamental equipment you may use in practice.
