The Return to Practice course at Swansea University is designed to enable nurses and health visitors who have previously held registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) to return to practice. In 2015 Swansea University was very proud to be recognised as the leading provider of Return to Practice in the UK in the Student Nursing Times Awards. As a result of winning this award and in further recognition of the high quality of the module we Elaine Jones & Keitth Bradley Adams Programme Managers were invited to share our success and achievements with HEIs from across the UK.
At Swansea we pride ourselves on having successfully run a leading course in this field for many years. A course that is embedded in our commitment to nurse education, and which enables the nurses of yesterday to be the students of today and the nurses of tomorrow.
