Course Information

Are you a qualified nurse or midwife and looking for your next career step? Perhaps you would like to progress into a leadership or management role. This course enables you to specialise in one of three areas and on successful completion of the course you’ll be a qualified Specialist Community Public Health Nurse in your chosen area. Our course is accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), granting a license to practice so you’ll be eligible to apply for specialist community public health nurse posts within your specialism.

You can choose from the following three pathways:

Health Visiting
You’ll learn to promote health and the prevention of ill health in a proactive and innovative way. This can be applied to individual, group and community levels within the context of national and international considerations.

Occupational Health Nursing
This course covers health and safety at work, risk assessment, management of occupational disease and the promotion of physical and psychological health among the workforce.

If you choose this pathway, you’ll be eligible for free membership to Inspiring Occupational Health (iOH). Benefits include a wide range of services including full access to the iOH website, support line, subsidised events, networking opportunities and access to exclusive iOH publications for one year.

School Nursing
This course will prepare you to lead a school nursing team of variable skill mix, to promote school health and meet the health-related needs of children and adolescents at school and their families and carers.

For Occupational Health Nursing, you should apply direct to Brunel. For Health Visiting and School Nursing, you should apply via NHS jobs. See Apply Now button.

Brunel University London also offers some modules from this programme as a CPPD (Continuing Personal and Professional Development). To find out more and to apply
