📖Program Curriculum

You will have compulsory theoretical study and clinical placements in hospitals community and or residential settings within Powys. Placement provides excellent practice-based learning experiences across Powys for programme students. These supervised placements enable you to observe professionals at work observe high quality team working and enable participation in the delivery of nursing care in a supported way while developing your confidence and skills in many areas of nursing practice.

You will receive excellent support from a personal tutor who is a registered nurse and an academic member of staff. For this programme a weekly meeting for support will be offered in a location within the Powys area to suit you allowing multiple aspects of theoretical and clinical learning to be discussed and supported in person.

During placements you will be supervised and assessed by practicing experienced registered nurses and other professionals. Theoretical and practical work is assessed through assignments examinations presentations and the All-Wales Assessment of Clinical Practice portfolio.

Where will I study?
The taught elements of this course are delivered using a blended approach using a range of online and virtual platforms as well as weekly term time face-to-face contact in the Powys area. Practice placements will be allocated to each student on an individual basis and as close to home as possible.

What will you study on this course?
Bangor University’s underpinning philosophy is of promoting intelligent kindness and compassionate leadership and these are woven throughout the curriculum. Interprofessional modules promoting a student-centred approach and recognising the value of learning from past and current experiences as well as that of service users and the introduction of new knowledge. The learning teaching and assessment strategies are designed to support students towards being an independent learner and that progresses towards becoming a registered practitioner. The assessment strategy is designed across the programme to be progressive and will encourage you to develop critical thinking and analysis. The modules foster reflective learning; reflective learners are able to engage in independent reflection in order to achieve personal learning and in order to pursue practice excellence. Being a research-led University we have embedded research principles and skills in research and enquiry into these modules in a progressive manner enabling the student to move from locating evidence (year one) to appraising evidence (year two) and finally to applying evidence (year three).

Within the dispersed learning nursing programme in Powys inter-professional education (IPE) will be a key component in health care practice teaching; its aim is to prepare students with the knowledge skills and attitudes necessary for collaborative patient centred practice. The dispersed learning programme will include IPE which is interactive focussed learning that encourages active collaboration between professions.

Using this methodology within the programme you will be equipped to develop the knowledge skills and competence in relation to values ethics roles responsibilities and inter-professional communication. Inter-professional education affords you the opportunity to experience how other disciplines apply differing emphases to areas such as professional ethics and work collaboratively to deliver comprehensive patient care.

In practice you will have opportunities to collaborate with professionals such as physiotherapists radiographers midwives and social workers. Bangor University is developing models for virtual placement opportunities within NMC standards and developing use of virtual reality within its current programmes in order to equip the student with the skills and knowledge to becoming the proficient practitioner within an interprofessional workforce within best practice guidance and for the benefit of future patient care.

For 2022 entry the Bachelor of Nursing programme (Dispersed Learning Powys) is mapped to the 2018 Nursing and Midwifery Council Standards of proficiency for registered nurses and the Future Nurse: Standards of proficiency. The new programme ensures nurses have greater understanding of patient client needs across all four fields of nursing practice but remaining field focused. The programme prepares future registrants with team working and leadership skills and enhanced knowledge in public health which is needed to deliver care in different settings to support health and well-being for people you care for.

You’ll develop therapeutic interpersonal skills and professional behaviours values and attitudes expected of a mental health nurse to ensure the safety and protection of people of all ages and their carers and families. You will develop skills for assessing mental health needs; formulating planning and reviewing mental health care; implementing care and therapeutic interventions for mental health; and applying mental health legislation to practice.
