Paediatric Nurses specialise in providing care and support to infants, children, and adolescents. Their work promotes children's health, provides medical treatments, and ensures the well-being of young patients during hospital stays.
Paediatric Nurses have a wide range of specialist skills that are key to caring for young patients. Due to their age, infants, children, and adolescents are unable to communicate their symptoms or pain levels in the same way as adults, so Paediatric Nurses must use all their skills to understand what's wrong and to determine an appropriate care plan. They also need to work closely with the parents or family members of patients, keeping them updated and supported throughout the child's care journey.
To become a Paediatric Nurse, you must hold an NMC-approved nursing degree, which can be completed at multiple universities throughout the UK. On completion of a degree programme, additional training in paediatrics is available to become a fully qualified Children's Nurse.
