At Robert Gordon University, the BSc Adult Nursing course will provide you with the capabilities to support the health and wellbeing of adults in a variety of contexts including hospital and home settings. You will be proficient in delivering compassionate care to adults who are experiencing acute/long-term illnesses and injury.
In Year 1 and 2 your learning will be generic to all nursing fields so you’re confident in providing essential care to everyone regardless of their age or ailment. Year 3 focusses on integrating this knowledge, skills and attributes for working autonomously with adult patients.
