This course is aimed at students wanting to continue their education through applied learning.
Higher Nationals provide a wide-ranging study of the health and social care sector and are designed for students who wish to pursue or advance their career in healthcare practice or related fields.
The course promotes and instills the values and skills required to work within a healthcare field.
During the year you will study seven modules which could include law, professional principles, physiology and psychological perspectives in health.
As part of this course you will be required to complete a minimum of 225 hours of work experience within a health and/or social care setting of your choice. This will allow you to apply the theories and concepts of learning within the classroom to the practices and realities of a workplace.
