Children and young people’s nurses deliver care to people under 25, their families and support networks. They work across a range of services including acute hospitals, community, primary care, schools, and specialised services. Alongside caring for the physical health needs of young people, the role encompasses caring for their mental, emotional and social needs, whilst ensuring they are appropriately safeguarded.Please use the official Coventry University website as your main source of information as our courses are subject to change throughout the year.
