Mental health nursing is a highly rewarding career where students can make a real difference. This course leads to registration as a mental health nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). If students are looking to make a positive difference to people's lives, and already have an undergraduate degree and experience in health and social care, this Masters course is for them.
Students will explore the role of the mental health nurse and the diverse needs and contexts of mental health service users. Students will analyse and apply research and evidence to understand the complexities of mental health provision. They will learn a range of psychological approaches used in clinical practice and prepare for transition to registered nurse.
The studies include core elements for all fields of nursing and modules specific to mental health. Students will learn first-hand from mental health service users and carers, through Kingston's partnerships with service user and carer-led organisations.
Students will gain experience in an area of London or Surrey, with diverse placement opportunities, including specialist and national services. The placement providers include South West London and St George's Mental Health Trust, Surrey and Borders Partnership Trust, South London and Maudsley (SLAM) NHS Foundation Trust, Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust and independent hospitals, including the Priory Group.
Students will have the opportunity to take a national or international elective module at the end of their first year.
