About Adult Nursing Bnursing (hons) in University of West London

This exciting new course delivered from September 2019 will be approved against the new Nursing and Midwifery Council Future Nurse: Standards of Proficiency for Registered Nurses (May 2018). These standards set out the knowledge and skills you as the next generation of adult nurses will learn, to enable you to deliver world class person-centred, evidence-based care.

This practical nursing course will give you the skills and experience you need to care for adults in a range of healthcare settings. With equal time spent on practice placement and in the classroom, you will graduate ready to find rewarding work as a nurse.

According to the Guardian University Guide 2019 UWL is ranked No. 1 in London and is in the top 17 universities in England for our nursing and midwifery courses.

Designed with input from students, service users and our partners in the NHS and voluntary and independent sectors, the course will prepare you for current nursing practice.

This course is offered at both our Ealing campus and Berkshire campus. As you will spend half your course gaining experience on placement, you should choose a course location that you can travel to easily. This course is based in London but we also offer BNursing (Hons) Adult Nursing in Berkshire.
