Course Information
On this two-year full-time course, you'll spend 42 weeks per year at university or on placement/simulation, with 10 weeks holiday. This is to ensure youre able to complete the required hours set by the NMC to be able to register at the end of your two years.
Your time will be split equally between practical and theory, with half of your time in clinical/simulation practice which includes placements in a variety of settings.
We deliver the course in blocks of teaching weeks where youll spend full weeks either learning theory or out in practice/simulation. Your first placement generally starts in March or April after your first theory block in which you will have completed all the mandatory training and preparation sessions.
In addition to time spent in practice, youll have a mix of simulated and technology-enhanced learning, university attendance in shared groups, field-specific groups, or interdisciplinary learning.
Practical sessions usually take place in our clinical simulation suite, which features ward bays equipped with the same technology and patient support systems youll find in hospital settings.
Scenarios that weve set our students in the past include major trauma management, with a patient involved in a motorbike accident who needs stabilising, emergency care with a patient who has suffered a heart attack, and ward management to show you the daily life of a nurse working a shift on a busy ward.
In our simulation laboratories, youll find human patient simulators, which we also use for scenario-based learning. These simulators can talk, cry, sweat, bleed and blink, and they have chest sounds, heart sounds, pulses and blood pressure.
Some of our academic staff still have contracts in practice and work shifts in their specialist areas, alongside their roles at Manchester Met. This helps to make sure that the skills they teach you in the classroom are real, relevant and up-to-date with current NHS standards.
