Qualifications to become a health visitor in the uk?
Hi i am a registered nurse and am interested in training to become a health visitor, has anybody
any idea what courses i would need to do ? i have had a hunt about on the internet but cannot find any specific courses at local universities. any help will be appreciated
Answer
Not all universities offer the degree in health visiting so it is a bit of a trawl to find the information. i have
given the link to my local university as they do offer it.
it may be not be feasible for you to undertake training here but i thought it would at least provide you with a general overview of what prior qualifications you need etc. http://www.tees.ac.uk/parttime_courses/health_&_social_care/bsc_(hons)_specialist_community_public_health_nursing_(health_visiting).cfm
