Our health and social care courses place a strong emphasis on interprofessional learning. This means that you train alongside practitioners from other health professions. Find out more.
Greater emphasis is being placed on bringing care to patients, carers and their families. This means that specialist community practice primary care nurses have more influence in defining needs and services.
There are opportunities for district nurses to
progress to management and community matron roles
develop expertise in primary, intermediate and rehabilitative care
move into different areas such as general practice, the independent sector, voluntary and charitable organisations

Mock hospital ward
The mock hospital ward at our Collegiate Campus gives students a hands on experience as it would be in a real hospital.
Together in the real world of health and social care
Our health and social care courses place a strong emphasis on interprofessional learning. This means that you train alongside practitioners from other health professions. So, depending on your course you could spend time working alongside
nurses
midwives
operating department practitioners
This gives you a fresh perspective on situations. And it also prepares you for the real world. Collaboration between health professionals is increasing as organisations try to provide a more integrated and effective service. At Sheffield Hallam we understand that by working together we can we give the best possible care.
