Overview

Program Description As a learning disabilities nurse, students can make a real difference to the lives of patients and their families. It’s a challenging and rewarding career. Students play a central role in understanding the health needs of people with learning disabilities, supporting them in issues which affect their lives, their individual needs, rights and opportunities in society. Students empower the person with a learning disability to have a fulfilling life, to live as independently as possible, and support their family. They gain specialist knowledge and skills in autism, effective communication skills, and creative and solution focused problem-solving experiences. Students play a key role to educate, empower and support the wider team, which may include psychiatrists, physiotherapists, psychologists and occupational therapists, working alongside people with a learning disability. A large part of their role is in the community setting, including visiting people in their own homes, or within a supported living environment. Students also work in respite services, inpatient settings, clinics, or in forensic hospitals supporting people who are detained under the Mental Health Act. They may assist people with a variety of learning disabilities, autism spectrum conditions, complex physical health needs and mental health needs which may be described as challenging. The work also involves managing medicines, giving injections and undertaking clinical tasks. 100% attendance is expected during this course.
