A partnership between Lynn\u2019s hospital and a university means that aspiring nurses can now train at a dedicated satellite training site.<\/p>\n
This new strategic partnership between the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and Anglian Ruskin University (ARU) will bring pre-registration nursing education directly to West Norfolk, making this closer to home for many nursing students \u2013 with a training site at the QEH.<\/p>\n
Launching in September, the collaboration will provide new local pathways into nursing and marks a significant investment in the future of the healthcare workforce.<\/p>\n
The Queen Elizabeth Hospital and Anglian Ruskin University have announced a new partnership<\/p>\n
The site will offer up to 30 student places per cohort, supporting the delivery of:<\/p>\n
\u2022 BSc (Hons) Nursing (Adult)<\/p>\n
\u2022 BSc (Hons) Nursing (Child)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Foundation Degree Nursing Associate (via direct entry and apprenticeship routes)<\/p>\n
This new initiative aligns with the NHS People Plan\u2019s commitment to grow and develop the nursing workforce by increasing access to high-quality education and training, closer to home.<\/p>\n
Students at the QEH satellite site will benefit from access to expert academic staff, clinical placements within the hospital and community settings, and cutting-edge simulation-based learning environments, all designed to prepare them for successful careers in nursing.<\/p>\n
Pippa Street, chief nurse at the hospital, said: \u201cThis partnership marks a major milestone. By investing in our people and developing the next generation of nurses, we are strengthening the future of healthcare in West Norfolk and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helen Muncey, head of education faculty at the hospital, added: \u201cWe are thrilled to be working with ARU to open up new opportunities for local people to pursue careers in nursing.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis collaboration is about making nursing education more accessible, relevant and grounded in real-world experience \u2013 right here in our community.\u201d<\/p>\n
Laura Adley, interim head of school for nursing at ARU, added: \u201cWe are delighted to be working in partnership with the QEH to deliver nurse education at their hospital site.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a great opportunity for local learners, to live locally and study locally, whilst also attracting learners from further afield to study at the QEH.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A partnership between Lynn\u2019s hospital and a university means that aspiring nurses can now train at a dedicated…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":163964,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4316],"tags":[2266,105,4348,7388,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-163963","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-healthcare","8":"tag-education","9":"tag-health","10":"tag-healthcare","11":"tag-kings-lynn","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114638558580729242","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/163963","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=163963"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/163963\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/163964"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=163963"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=163963"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=163963"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
