PGDip Specialist Practice Community

Specialist practitioners are defined as leaders who are able to exercise higher levels of judgement and discretion. This course provides student-centred and interdisciplinary opportunities for the development of a critically informed specialist practitioner in community nursing who will be instrumental in changing and developing nursing practice.

The overarching aim of our course is to produce a competent, independent community practitioner working at postgraduate level, capable of promoting the development and delivery of community nursing practice across a variety of settings.

Pathways include:

  • District Nursing
  • Mental Health Nursing
  • Learning Disability Nursing
  • General Practice Nursing
  • Community Childrens’ Nursing

The course is 50% theory and 50% practice and this is integrated across the duration of the course. You will undertake the theoretical component in the University, and undertake the practice component in a community setting under the supervision of a qualified Practice Assessor and Practice Supervisor from the defined area of practice.
