Today's nurses are reflective practitioners who must not only react to illness and stress, but also be technically skilled, proactive and able to work in partnership with others in helping people have healthier lives.  Nursing students will develop valuable skills in clinical reasoning, client care, communication, judgement and research in a course that offers extensive clinical experience through a variety of local and international health agencies.The aim of the Bachelor of Nursing degree is to prepare graduates who will be knowledgeable and skillful professional nurses, able to practice in a range of settings. Nursing graduates are the professional currency in contemporary communities and engage in nursing partnerships with people experiencing health/illness events using evidence-based strategies.
