Public Health (Specialist Community Public Health Nursing) - BSc(Hons)
The BSc(Hons) Public Health course has been designed to produce knowledgeable and skilled public health practitioners who are able to work with various client groups across different settings within the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) Professional Code of Conduct (2008). This knowledge and skill development will be reflected in your ability to demonstrate achievement of the NMC Standards of proficiency for Specialist Community Public Health Nurses (SCPHN 2004). Ten key areas of public health practice and domains require a practitioner to search for health needs; stimulate an awareness of health needs; influence policies affecting health and facilitate health enhancing activities in different public health settings.
The course embraces a family/child centred public health role with individuals, families and populations, focusing on improving health and tackling health inequalities. The approach requires practitioners to work within a dynamic socio-cultural and service provision context across traditional boundaries, networking and developing services in conjunction with service users, other professionals and voluntary workers. This involves the capacity to lead, assess, work collaboratively, evaluate public health provision, and accept responsibility and accountability for the safe, effective and efficient management of that provision.
This course is for people who wish to register on the third part of the NMC register as a Specialist Community Public Health Nurse: Health Visitor, School Nurse or Occupational Health Nurse. The course requires effective registration on part one (Nursing) or part two (Midwifery) of the NMC register.
The course aims to:
- Promote public health practice centred learning.
- Develop students' evidence based public health knowledge, and skills to inform practice.
- Promote the development of lifelong learning through reflection, and personal development planning.
- Promote inter-professional learning, collaborative and partnership working within the context of public health.
