About this course

Mental health nursing is one of the most demanding and meaningful areas of nursing practice, focused on supporting people through experiences of psychological distress, mental illness, and the complex life circumstances that surround them. Mental health nurses work in hospitals, community mental health teams, crisis services, rehabilitation units, and a growing range of specialist settings, forming sustained therapeutic relationships with patients and their families while contributing to multidisciplinary teams that include psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and occupational therapists. At Birmingham City University, this three-year full-time programme, with a January intake that allows entry at the start of the new year, prepares you for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as a mental health nurse. The programme is NMC approved and will continue to be so, tho
