Masters Degree Description

This course provides you with theoretical knowledge and practical experience needed to register as a children’s nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council.

Children’s nurses provide care for children and young people from birth to 18 years of age across settings, for example hospital, home and hospice. The role of the children’s nurse includes promoting health and minimising illness in collaboration with families. When providing nursing care for children, working with the family and consideration of their needs is essential.

Children’s nurses work collaboratively with a range of professionals to meet the specific needs of children, young people and their families wherever they are cared for.
