Student specialist health visiting and school nurses (SCPHN) recruitment

What do previous SCPHN students have to say about the diploma?

“The SCPHN programme has provided me with a greater understanding of the theory behind the health needs of the school aged child and young person, which I have been able to implement into practice. With this knowledge, I have a more in-depth insight into the expectation of my role as a school nurse and feel more equipped to deliver a higher standard of care to benefit my service users and colleagues. Would highly recommend this journey to becoming a Specialist Public Health Nurse.”

“The SCPHN course is a tough course to do; however, you will not be disappointed as the amount of knowledge, learning and amazing university buddies you will make along the way will make the course well worth it. Additionally, the qualification is for life and will open many doors.”

“With a pen, a set of scales and the education provided from the SCPHN course; you are just a knock of the door away from providing advice which can change lives by supporting and enhancing the health outcomes for children, families and communities”

“Don’t be put off by the course through a disability; the course tutors and supporting staff will help you get through. It’s not easy, but life isn’t easy. Dream big and make your dreams become reality and hold onto the positives.”
