Social Care

As such the Social Care team recognise the great benefit of collaborating with service users, health and social care employers and stakeholders in this sector.

The School has strong links with a range of individuals and organisations in the field who have expressed an ongoing commitment to working with us. The Social Care team build on these long-standing working relationships at all levels of the programme to embed a research informed, evidence-based practice approach to teaching and learning.
