Welcome to the Faculty of Health and Social Care Congratulations on successfully securing a place on the pre-registration nursing programmes. This is the start of an exciting time for you and obtaining your degree will be the beginning of a life long career which is challenging but extremely rewarding. Nursing is a privilege, but it is also our privilege to be able to welcome you into the Faculty of Health and Social Care and be part of shaping your future. The Faculty is made up of 178 staff who are here to help teach, guide and support you and ensure that you have a positive student experience. In terms of practice, Edge Hill has excellent relationships with NHS hospital and community Trusts and the practice placement experience of our students has been voted best in the country for two years running in the National Student Survey. Your Fresher’s week and induction week have been designed to give you time to settle into University life, introduce you to the programme, teaching staff and personal tutor. It is also about getting to know each other and making new friends. The first few weeks will be daunting and you will receive a lot of information; do not worry if not all of it sticks at first, you can always get further advice from your personal tutor, module leader or year lead. Don’t hesitate to contact someone at any time by email, phone or in person. Staff on reception are always willing to help if you are unsure or cannot find the person you need to speak to. We wish you well over the next three years and hope that you will make the most of all the opportunities there are for you. Work hard and achieve the outcomes you need to, but remember have fun as well.
