Mental Health and Children's Nursing Liverpool John Moores University

Overview

As an Integrated Master's degree, it combines undergraduate (levels 4 to 6) plus (level 7) study.

Career paths

Successful completion of the Mental Health and Children's Nursing programme offered at Liverpool John Moores University will allow you to apply for NMC registration in your two fields; as a Mental Health Nurse and as a Children's Nurse.

You will then be able to apply for Band 5 nursing posts within the NHS, private sector and voluntary sector.  

You will need to register your nursing qualifications within five years of completing your course. As a constantly evolving profession, the NMC requires you to revalidate every three years in order to maintain your registration.  

Health service delivery is increasingly integrated. As such, there is a demand for nurses that can work with complex conditions, across the lifespan and within different settings. Your dual registration increases your versatility, which can lead to you being highly employable.  

Some graduates prefer to pursue careers in teaching, research or management, or continue their studies. Your Integrated Master's degree shows you have studied at a higher level than a standard BSc (level 6) nursing degree, which means you may be able to access education linked to advanced roles more easily.
