Course description
This course prepares undergraduate students for the transition from student to professional nurse/midwife. Professional practice challenges graduates to apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired over the duration of their undergraduate program and apply these skills for lifelong learning. The course examines concepts around fulfilling safety and quality in health/maternity care. This includes learning skills around leadership and resilience that will support students in their future practice and will extend their reflective practice to consider personal contributions to their profession. The course also explores the use of health informatics in practice environments and expectations regarding competency as a newly registered practitioner in a range of contexts.
