During these placements you participate in shift work, including weekends and nights. You become a confident and competent skilled practitioner, capable of leading and managing the care of children and their families and a resilient and future-ready nurse who holds strong professional values, exercise clinical judgement, challenge inequality, champion diversity and uphold the integrity of the profession while delivering high quality, child-centred compassionate care.
