PGDipin Advancing Practice (District Nursing): Development Opportunity

We have an exciting opportunity for you to develop your leadership, decision making and clinical skills whilst obtaining a Specialist Practice Qualification in District Nursing. This programme will enable these advanced skills, and encourage your personal development by engaging you in debate, critical analysis and reflection.

The current modernisation agenda of the NHS and particularly primary care requires nurses to work flexibly and collaboratively, make sound professional judgements, and provide skilled critical and sensitive action which is responsive to patient need.

We have opportunities for innovative nurses to undertake the PGDip in Advancing Nursing Practice (DN Specialist Qualification).

  • You will be a Registered Nurse working in a community setting.
  • You will need to hold a BSc (Hons) or evidence of post registration study.
  • You must meet the University entry requirements.
  • You will be able to demonstrate sound leadership skills and have a commitment to working in the community.
This is currently a part time distance learning course over two years allowing the successful candidate to combine study with contracted hours.

All course fees are funded through Health Education Wessex. Salary support is available and will be negotiated at interview.

15 hours per week study contract and the rest of your contracted hours will be with your usual workplace.

Previous applicants need not apply.

For further information or an informal discussion please contact Anne-Marie Phillips - Practice Educator 07867 [email protected] or Jackie Balloch – Team Lead and Practice Teacher 07917 [email protected].
