Return to Practice (Adult Field),NQUG

This 60-credit level 6, part time module aims to provide you with the knowledge, practice hours and competencies to meet the Return to Practice Standards (NMC 2019) and be eligible for readmission to the NMC register. This module will enable you to regain confidence and update your skills and knowledge in a safe and effective way.

The fundamentals of holistic nursing practice will be complemented by dynamic nursing care delivery models, which are underpinned by evidence-based healthcare. Our dedicated Healthcare Education team will empower you to re-learn the skills and attributes of a registered nurse, which will enable you to make a real difference to the emotional and physical health and wellbeing of others. You can expect to be challenged, you will learn new things about yourself and find inner strengths you never thought you had. Your journey will include a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences, but it is going to be so worthwhile.
