learn essential practical skills
Recently the focus on the NHS and the positive work they do has been bigger than ever. Our Nursing & Allied Health courses can provide you with essential practical skills to either start out or further your career in healthcare.
When taking one of our courses, you will have a combination of academic and practice-based learning working with professionals who have a wealth of hands-on experience of delivering health and social care across all fields of nursing. You will also have access to specialised equipment such as the Nursing Kelly within our onsite simulation suite will help to develop knowledge, skills and understanding when recognising patient needs.
“We are so excited to be a part of shaping the future workforce in Nursing and Healthcare and helping to provide high quality care for the people of Cornwall.”
