Elevate your nursing career and provide compassionate, evidence-based care. Learn in a supportive environment, collaborate with experts, and graduate ready to register with the NMC as a highly skilled mental health nurse. This Masters course draws on our leading research to create a unique mental health curriculum. You'll learn in an environment which values scholarship, social awareness and research. Through theoretical study, practical experience and reflective discussion, you will develop your skills in mental health nursing. We will encourage and help you to develop an intellectual curiosity that will support your development throughout your career. You'll learn how to develop a therapeutic relationship with your clients and gain the skills you need to help people with mental health problems. You'll work with social workers, psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, other nurses and doctors and have opportunities to engage with third sector and service user organisations. You'll graduate ready to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) as a highly-skilled mental health nurse, able to provide outstanding care to patients. Learning together with adult nursing students means that you will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to enable you to provide holistic care to your patients and their families. You will develop a wide range of skills including communication, leadership, research, and clinical practice - all of which will be underpinned by core values including compassion and care. After completing this degree you'll be eligible to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council, the professional regulatory body for nurses and midwives in the UK.
