Nursing at City University of London

Hey,
Congratulations on receiving your offers! It's a big, deal you must be super proud!

As a City student studying Children's Nursing you may call me biased but I love studying here, because of the atmosphere created by both the staff (lecturers), current students and everyone who works within the university, it creates such a positive environment which makes it a pleasure to study here.

Now onto why I think City stands out from other universities especially when studying children's nursing;

1) We have such great links with many trusts nationwide which means all your placements will be in areas that have a high reputation in providing the best healthcare to patients whilst also being super diverse, and your placements can vary to hospital settings to community. Our relationships include leading hospitals and trusts including Bart’s Health NHS Trust, University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, the East London NHS Foundation Trust and Homerton University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

2) The way the course is set out really enables you to become the most confident nurse you can be! Many universities send students out to placement straight away, however with nursing at City, they prepare you with the theory first in terms of lectures, seminars and teaching for the first couple of months, and once the theory is completed they then send you out onto placement. I find this has been so helpful, as I felt like I had some knowledge when going to placement, as opposed to no knowledge.

3) Our facilities are amazing. Here at City we have mock hospital wards and hospital equipment for our practical sessions and to practice our skills, and I find this so great because everything we do in these mock hospital wards feels so real life like, which helps us as students understand how it will really be like on placement.

4) For me I have found the support at City has been immense, you never feel as if you are alone if you need help as all the staff are really friendly and approachable and always willing to help whenever you need them to!

Instead of me writing way more reasons way I am going to attach a YouTube link below from City's channel about my experience as a children's nurse if you are interested;

I hope this has helped you, and good luck on your future studies!

Been wondering the same thing, called the Health school and City help desk and emailed everywhere – no response yet. They're slowly uploading more timetables to the Induction page (https://studenthub.city.ac.uk/new-students/induction-timetables) which I check every day. Looks like the School of Health courses are the only ones not listed yet :/ Kind of frustrating since I need to put in my notice of leave to my employer and am scared that our courses will be at the beginning of Sept!

Hi,
Are you still a rep at the uni?
I'm a new student at the uni studying a Nursing Associate degree which includes a foundation year, but I haven't gone into class since the first lesson on tuesday 3rd. But I have caught up with the learning online. I also haven't collected my ID. Would I still be able to collect my ID this week? Also, I was given uniform to wear as part of my course, do I need to wear that uniform to every class or is it just for placement only?

Thanks.
