About the course
This course is for those who want to work in clinical settings as an enrolled nurse and a valued member of the health team. Students will gain knowledge in nursing, social science, and the structure and function of the human body. They will learn skills in simulated learning environments which can then be applied on placements in clinical practice. A range of clinical courses in different community health care settings will prepare students to practice in areas including rehabilitation, acute care and mental health. After completing this programme students will be able to apply to the Nursing Council of New Zealand to sit an exam to be registered as an Enrolled Nurse; this means they will be able to work with access to, and seek when appropriate, guidance from a registered nurse or other registered health practitioner.
