The qualified students will be eligible for dual registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) as both Adult and Mental Health Nurses. The dual qualification helps graduates to work in various areas such as hospitals, mental health facilities, community healthcare, and specialized units that require professionals with cross-disciplinary expertise.

Job placement
The candidates will be well-prepared for leadership roles within the healthcare sector, making them highly sought after in both UK and global job markets. Furthermore, the placements will be offered across Essex.
