Profile
Nurses play a critical role in society; they help individuals achieve, maintain, or regain the best possible health, and at other times, they provide comfort, support, and dignity in times of illness or death. They often work in conjunction with families, groups, or the larger community.
In addition to professionalism, a nurse must practice with intelligence, compassion, and enthusiasm.DCU’s BSc in Nursing (Intellectual Disability) program employs a combination of academic and practical learning to instill your competence in clinical, theoretical, ethical, intercultural, and cross-disciplinary knowledge. You’ll focus on the fundamental issues in nursing practice, and integrate these with aspects of psychology, sociology, philosophy, law, pharmacology, and microbiology. You’ll also have a chance to put your new skills to practice under the guidance of registered nurses in a real-world work environment. This nursing specialty will help you understand how to help people with intellectual disabilities achieve their full potential, in a variety of settings, and in collaboration with their families, other professionals, and care facilities.
