Comments about BSc Adult Nursing - At the institution - Bristol City - Bristol

  • Objectives
    Nursing is primarily a practice based discipline, which values human beings. At its best it enables people to reach and maintain their health and social goals in order to achieve their optimum quality of life. Nursing is founded on the premise that human beings have dignity, are worthy of respect and have individual rights, responsibilities, needs and beliefs. However, nursing is not confined to boundaries of alleviating sickness and suffering but is also concerned with the whole person and the promotion of health and wellness in individuals.

    Content

    You can choose to study the programme at one of the University's Campuses or Education Centres - Glenside Campus in Bristol, Gloucester or Swindon Education Centres.

    Central to the core subjects of nursing theory and practice are supporting studies in biology, psychology, sociology, interpersonal skills and information technology, as applied to health care in a professional setting. There is a strong emphasis on the development of interprofessional and interpersonal skills, which are essential in establishing effective relationships with patients, clients, and colleagues in a multidisciplinary setting. Throughout the programme research appreciation skills are developed in support of good practice.

    The role of the nurse caring for adults is evolving in response to changes in ways healthcare is delivered, and in response to demographic and social trends: the ageing population has increased the need for continuing care services for older people; surgical day cases have increased markedly; and the development of care in the community is ongoing. These changes are reflected in the Adult Nursing programme, which provides students with experiences in both community and hospital settings, working closely with other health care professionals.
