Nursing

Diversifying skills enables the care of diverse populations.

We believe nurses can improve the wellbeing of diverse populations in a variety of health settings. That’s why we offer nursing courses at Swinburne.

Nursing courses are an opportunity to enhance your existing medical knowledge and diversify your skillset as a nurse. You’ll also work alongside a registered nurse in the required placements in the course. No matter which direction you choose, you’ll gain the foundational and practical understanding necessary to administer patient care in a range of health settings.

By the time you graduate, you’ll have the confidence and skills to apply your knowledge to the workplace. Future careers can be found in a range of health settings, including hospitals.

This course has allowed me to gain a much better understanding of the nursing profession and has been a great stepping stone into the industry. I’ve enjoyed every moment of the course. My experience on my first aged-care placement was one I’m truly grateful for, as I was given the space to learn and participate in everyday life at the hostel.
