As an EN, you’ll assist, protect and promote the health of people under your care including providing physical and emotional care, monitoring patient care, administering medication, maintaining infection prevention and control, performing clinical assessments and contributing to care plans. You will also gain the skills to use evidence-based practice in order to provide quality nursing services. This Nursing course will equip nurses with the knowledge and skills necessary for them to work as Enrolled Nurses in Australia. The course is available at Melbourne, Perth and Sydney-based institutions so you can study close to home or travel for a new experience during your studies. Upon completion, graduates are eligible to apply for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia, allowing them to practice as Registered Nurses across Australia.

As a Registered Nurse in Australia, you have the opportunity to work in a variety of healthcare settings. Your responsibilities will include providing care to patients, assessing their health needs, developing and implementing care plans and delivering quality nursing care. To become an RN in Australia, you must complete a Bachelor of Nursing degree from an approved Australian university.
