World-class facilities
We offer world-class facilities and our Mary Seacole Building houses state-of-the-art lecture theatres and seminar rooms as well as our Clinical Practice Wards.
Diverse range of Health and Social Care courses
We offer a wide range of courses for today's challenging health and social care environment. We have a long established reputation for delivering excellent undergraduate, postgraduate and post-qualifying education and health CPD training.
Excellent research
The rich knowledge and expertise gained from our research activities helps to inform nursing and health care practice and the delivery of our wide-ranging education portfolio.
Service users and carers group
We have formed a service users and carers group in response to student feedback and concern for the patient voice in the nursing curriculum. There is a core group of 12-15 people and all have had experience of the health service or a health issue in some shape or form as either a service user and/or carer.
Community partnerships
Our staff are involved with a wide range of other organisations and projects and these collaborations give that added extra to our education provision.
