Mental Health and Learning Disabilities Nursing

Summary

This integrated masters course will prepare you to apply to the NMC Register as a Registered Nurse in the fields of mental health and learning disabilities nursing.

Mental health nursing and learning disability nursing are both highly rewarding careers where you can make a real difference. One in four people experience mental health problems in any given year, and this course prepares you to work in collaboration with service users, their relatives and carers towards recovery.

You'll explore the management of complex conditions across the lifespan, from children to the older person and those with dementia or other mental or physical health needs. You'll study the factors that affect people's health inequalities in our society and how we can improve health outcomes for people with a learning disability and autistic spectrum conditions (ASC).

Your studies include core elements for all fields of nursing and modules specific to mental health and learning disabilities. You'll learn first-hand from mental health service users and carers, through our strong partnerships with service user and carer-led organisations including the Recovery College, the Sutton Carers Centre and the South West London Recovery College,

You'll have the opportunity to apply your learning in a wide range of placements. Our placement providers include South West London and St George's Mental Health Trust, Surrey and Borders Partnership Trust, South London and Maudsley (SLAM) NHS Foundation Trust, Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust and independent hospitals, including the Priory Group, the Children's Trust and the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability, as well as in community settings.

At the end of your second year you'll have the opportunity to take an optional elective placement, nationally or internationally.
