2 BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Practice - Course overview Thank you for your interest in our BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Practice Course. The programme has been developed in collaboration with health and care providers across the region to ensure that our graduates will gain the skills and experience needed to care for adults with a range of healthcare needs. During your studies you will work in practice alongside other students and staff from a range of healthcare disciplines. The learning opportunities and experiences presented to you will enable you to develop the knowledge and skills to provide high quality compassionate nursing care. You will also develop your skills to become a confident, professional leader with the flexibility needed to work in an ever-changing health and social care environment. The course has been structured over a three-year period and is taught together with student nurses undertaking a four-year apprenticeship route. Whilst nursing is truly a vocational profession, the nurse of today needs to possess high level thinking and analytical skills as well as the in-depth knowledge needed to work in complex healthcare environments. Therefore, the course structure reflects 50% theory and 50% practice learning. One feature of our course that is different is that some of the theory elements are taught by our partner trusts to bring a rich contemporary context to the course. Throughout the three years, you will have a number of practice placements in a variety of different healthcare settings. This will enable you to gain insight into many different areas and specialities in healthcare. You will be expected to contribute to patient care and work as part of the nursing and wider inter-professional team. You will be supported in practice by professional and experienced staff who will monitor your progress. Core Units of the BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Practice

3 In year one, you will be introduced to the fundamental concepts of nursing which include person centred practice, communication, assessing and planning nursing care along with an introduction to public health and health promotion. In year two, you will study decision making and recognition of deteriorating patients and continue to develop your skills in assessing, planning, delivering and evaluating care. This will be based on the use of evidence-based practice that is the foundation of modern nursing practice and patient care. In the final year, you will be developing your practice and skills so that you are ready to enter the nursing register as a fully prepared Registered Nurse. The knowledge and skills that you need to make this transition will be developed both in theory and in practice. You will also develop and refine your abilities to lead and manage care environments as well as supervise and coach junior members of the nursing team. By the end of the course, our graduates will have become skilled nurses who are fit to meet today s healthcare challenges and perform in a professional caring and compassionate way. Further information can be found by visiting our course page: Wishing you the very best with your future studies. Pauline Morgan RN On behalf of the BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Practice Course Team

4 Southampton Solent University: BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Practice Entry requirements At the commencement of the course students must have: GCSE in English Language and Maths at grade C (or equivalent) which must have been taken over the last two years Plus one of the following: Tariff points total of no less than 112 from A-levels, BTEC or equivalent Level 3 qualifications Access to HE Certificate (Merit or Distinction) GNVQ Advanced in a relevant subject (Merit or Distinction) Other Qualifications may be considered (contact add.interview@solent.ac.uk) All applicants must: demonstrate suitability for the Adult Nursing Practice course at a Selection Day be able to provide academic references declare any criminal convictions or disciplinary matters * declare health issues * * Please note that all those offered a place on the course will be screened with a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Declaration of a conviction will not automatically disqualify you from being offered a place, but failure to declare something that later comes to light will mean you will be deemed unsuitable for nursing, thus putting your place on the course at risk. If you are uncertain whether your health issue is something you should declare, please seek advice from the Admissions Tutor. For example, applicants are advised to declare mental health issues. Telling us about a health issue will not automatically disqualify you from being offered a place, we simply wish to discuss whether you will require specific support but failure to declare something that later comes to light will mean you are deemed unsuitable for Nursing, thus putting your place on the course at risk. You should also disclose to the Admissions Tutor if you or any person in your immediate family are currently subject to any social services interventions (for example, but not exclusive to; Safeguarding Procedures, etc.). Telling us about such an issue will not automatically disqualify you from being offered a place, we simply wish to discuss whether you will require specific support but failure to declare something that later comes to light will mean you are deemed unsuitable for nursing, thus putting your place on the course at risk. Practice Placements

5 As part of the BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing Practice programme students will undertake a number of assessed practice placements. The University acknowledges that student circumstances can change and thus reserves the right to undertake assessment of readiness throughout the course. The University undertakes to secure high quality Placements, from quality assured Placement providers, which are appropriate to the students learning needs. Whilst every effort will be made to adhere to the Placement timetable, due to circumstances beyond our control, which may arise, we cannot guarantee that every Placement will always start on time. Similarly, whilst students individual circumstances (e.g. domestic responsibilities) will be considered, wherever possible, students need to be aware that the priority on Placement allocation is to ensure that every student s learning needs and the programme requirements are met. Students are expected to travel to Placements within and up to the boundaries of Hampshire and Isle of Wight. In accordance with Practice Education guidance, the University and its partners are unable to make any commitments which offer to meet any personal preferences of students. There is a limited supply of both voluntary and statutory Placements through the region. This means that choice is limited and this limit relates to geography, setting, service users and agency, and shift patterns. Students should expect to work unsocial hours as required. Refusal to accept a practice Placement that is judged to meet the course requirements could seriously jeopardise the student s progress on the course or lead to termination of studies. The University has no responsibility to offer another Placement where a student refuses an offer unless mitigating circumstances, in line with University regulations, are produced and accepted by the Examination Board. The University will give particular attention to securing an appropriate Placement for any student with a disclosed disability or health condition. All students with identified needs, which may impact upon the Practice Learning experience, will be expected to undertake an additional assessment of need prior to starting each Placement. This assessment will be undertaken by the University Access Solent Service and will be shared with the Practice Educator. All Placement providers are required to take out insurance against liability or bodily injury or damage to health sustained by an employee whilst at work under the Employers Liability (Compensation Insurance) Act Students on Placements will also be covered by this insurance but need to be aware that where a Placement requires the student to transport clients etc. then appropriate insurance cover must be in place. Students should check with their own motor insurance company. All Placements will adhere to the Q.A.A. Code of Practice for placements in Higher Education and all students must demonstrate adherence to the NMC Code All written/recorded evidence produced whilst on Placements must respect both client/service user and agency confidentiality.

6 Disclosure of Information The Nursing and Midwifery Council require us to make enquiries about convictions, cautions, reprimands and any disciplinary offences that have occurred in work. They also require us to make enquiries as to whether prospective students are physically and mentally fit enough to undertake the role of student nurse and, at the end of the course, prior to entry onto the Nursing and Midwifery Council, register as a qualified nurse. The purpose of the enquiries is to ensure the safety of service users who may be at risk. For us to do this at an early stage in the selection process thus avoiding any delays or difficulties later - would you please complete the enclosed forms (using a separate sheet of paper if necessary) and seal them in an envelope. This must be returned to the Admission Tutor on the selection day. Please note that no candidate will be offered a place without first returning the completed forms (attached). It is a requirement that you must indicate whether you have EVER been convicted of any offence, or received a caution or been bound over and, if so, the date and nature of the offence(s). This must include information about spent convictions under the terms of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act, 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 as amended by the ROA 1974 (Exceptions) (Amendment) Order 1986 and in the Police Act 1997 (Criminal Records) Regulations. If you are accepted on the programme, the information gathered may be shared with relevant people involved in your training, including personal tutors, placement agencies and practice placements. If you are not accepted, this form will be destroyed. Previous convictions or disciplinary incidents do not necessarily rule out applicants but may limit placementlearning opportunities. However, failure to disclose will lead to automatic exclusion from the programme. If you have any queries about the above information, please contact Pauline Morgan, Admissions Tutor (pauline.morgan@solent.ac.uk ) or the Admissions and Enrolment Team ( ).

7 Declaration of Health and Good Character In line with the Nursing and Midwifery Council requirements for entry to the Nursing Register, you must provide information about your health. You are therefore asked to give permission for the University to contact your GP - in order to confirm that you are physically and mentally fit to undertake the qualification - if this is thought to be necessary. If you are uncertain whether your health issue is something that will affect your ability to undertake the academic work and/or practice requirements, please declare it anyway. It is impossible to list all the conditions we need to know about, but they include: conditions that may cause seizures conditions that may result in short-term memory loss or lapses in memory treatment or medication you are taking that may result in short-term memory loss or lapses in memory serious communicable diseases serious mental ill health, or its treatment substance dependence including substance dependence for which you are receiving treatment. Telling us about a health issue will not necessarily prevent an offer of a place on the course, whereas failure to declare something that later comes to light will mean you will be deemed unsuitable for Nursing, thus putting your place on the course at risk. A Declaration Form is enclosed. The University reserves the right to verify any of the details given as part of the candidate s application for a place on the course. If you have any queries about the above information, please contact Pauline Morgan, Admissions Tutor (pauline.morgan@solent.ac.uk ) or the Admission and Enrolment team ( ).
