Bachelor of Nursing IBNU
Registered Nurses play a vital role in health care, making positive contributions to society through applying evidenced-based nursing care, health promotion, education, administration, policy development and research. This program prepares you to deliver the highest quality care to individuals and groups as well as meet and respond to Australian and international health challenges and priorities.
From your first year of study you will be exposed to a range of learning activities, facilitated by highly experienced academics and clinicians, to prepare you with the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed for entry to professional practice. Your studies will be supported by learning resources available to you 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Under the guidance of senior clinical nurses, you will be allocated to a state-of-the-art simulated hospital and health service facility as well as undertake extensive clinical practice placements across metropolitan, regional and rural hospitals and health services.
