This programme will prepare students to meet the Enrolled Nurse registration requirements set out by the Nursing Council of New Zealand. On completion of the programme graduates are eligible to apply and sit the national nursing exam to gain registration as an Enrolled Nurse.

This course is for those who are interested in working within the health care sector where you will gain the knowledge and skills to function as an efficient enrolled nurse who performs a wide range of nursing functions, implements and evaluates health care plans, all whilst working in partnership with individuals, whānau, and the multidisciplinary team. Your training will also ensure that you can demonstrate attributes of a safe practitioner who is reflective and works within the scope of practice. Enrolled Nurses work under the direction and delegation of Registered Nurses or other registered health practitioners in a range of settings including hospitals, various community settings and residential facilities.

This programme is a blend of e-learning and classroom teaching, which enables the student to study off-campus for much of the course. All classes, with the exception of clinical placements, are delivered onsite and/or online. All students are required to attend onsite learning activities at NorthTec’s Raumanga Campus, at specified times throughout the programme. These times will be blocked to minimise time away from home and travel for regional students.

This method of learning is designed to provide the student with the greatest flexibility possible in terms of time and place. Course content that would normally be delivered by a lecturer in a classroom is now accessed online at home. There are weekly requirements for each course and the student can decide what time of day or how many hours they spend online.
