About this course

Mental health nursing and social work is a dual qualification that prepares graduates to provide clinical care for people experiencing mental health difficulties and to safeguard and support vulnerable individuals and families through social work practice. Mental health nurses work with people experiencing conditions such as psychosis, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and substance misuse, providing therapeutic care in hospitals, community mental health teams, and crisis services. Social workers help people navigate difficult circumstances, protecting those at risk, supporting recovery, and working within legal frameworks to promote wellbeing. At Edge Hill University, this four-year, full-time programme is one of a small number in the UK that enables dual registration, giving you eligibility to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as a qualified mental health nurse
