Hear from our students

The best part of the job is the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives. Nurses are able to form meaningful connections with patients and family. We have the opportunity to be involved in the most challenging times of people’s lives. We’re not only providing medical care, but also emotional support.

I learnt a lot from tutors sharing their experiences and encouraging us to share ours. Discussing real experiences was a really important part of my learning journey. A stand-out module was the ‘Change in Practice’ module, where you have to choose a service area where you would like to improve.
