2-Term Undergraduate Foundation Pathway in Healthcare - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Learning Disability Nursing

Program Description

HIC offers University Foundation Studies for candidates who do not meet the direct entry criteria or hold high school qualifications that are not recognised. Upon successful completion of the pathway programme students will progress onto the University of Hertfordshire.

Learning disabilities nurses have the challenging yet rewarding job of caring for people with a range of special needs. This pre-registration course gives students the knowledge, skills and attitudes to enhance a person’s health and wellbeing, and improve or maintain a range of complex developmental, physical, psychological and mental health needs. They’ll work in partnership with people with learning disabilities, their families, carers and other health and social care professionals. Ultimately, they’ll help people with learning disabilities to live a life that’s as fulfilling as possible. As wit other nursing courses, students will take a variety of clinical work placements.
