Diploma of Health (Nursing Pathway)

Being a nurse is a job title. This means that the Nursing Bachelor's program of study will have a more focused focus. You will learn how to care for sick people and comfort them during their recovery. This means advising them on the best health options, taking the prescribed medication, and taking care of their overall well-being. You can usually choose to study in one of the four main fields: adult nursing, pediatric nursing, learning disability nursing or mental health nursing. As a student nurse, you will have the option to focus on these four areas, if you choose to. You will learn basic treatments and how to treat someone who is suffering from illness. To be successful in the nursing profession, you will also need to develop soft skills such as empathy and cooperation.
