Students enjoy a supportive learning environment where care and attention are given to their individual needs. Credit for previous nursing/health experience may apply. The EN works with the registered nurse (RN) as part of the health care team and demonstrates competence in the provision of person-centred care. Core practice generally requires the EN to work under the direct or indirect supervision of the RN. At all times, the EN retains responsibility for his/her actions and remains accountable in providing delegated nursing care. Graduates benefit from quality employment pathways and/or may build onto their Diploma by continuing onto undergraduate university studies at any number of Australian universities. This Diploma course will provide 12 months credit off most undergraduate nursing degrees (subject to approval).
