Healthcare at Bedfordshire
Our healthcare courses are developed in collaboration with local healthcare providers and health authorities, to ensure the learning you receive meets the benchmark set for care providers. You’ll spend 50% of your time in industry, and we have an on-campus simulation centre to further enhance you clinical skills. Our Nursing and Midwifery courses lead to professional registration and are approved in partnership with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Our Operating Department Practice and Paramedic Science courses are approved in collaboration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Aswell as running our nursing courses in Luton, we run Child Nursing at our Bedford campus and Adult and Mental Health at our Aylesbury campus.

Service User and Carer Involvement Policy
The School of Nursing and Health Education recognises the important contribution that service users and carers make to the delivery of healthcare education. By sharing their experience with students, academics and practitioners they can influence the curriculum design, delivery, management and evaluation and the recruitment and assessment of students.
If you would like further information on working with the University as a service user please contact us at Volunteerconnect@beds.ac.uk
Find out more about how we work in close partnership with our local Practice Learning Partners, who provide placement experiences for students.
