Any dual trained U.K. nurses?

[Determination]

Hi all,

Out of curiosity, are their any U.K. dual trained (and registered with the NMC) nurses on the forum? If so, could you please give me a shout and advise me where you did your conversion/transition training at.

I'm sure I've called almost every university in the U.K. and I just keep hitting a . It's looks like the universities doesn't want to offer this 18 month course anymore. The only transition course I keep finding is the RGN to Midwifery which quite a few universities still offer this on an 18 month programme.

I've contacted the NMC and they said that they don't have a directory and that I would just have to keep calling around.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Dundee University does conversion courses

Thanks for that.

Do you know of anywhere a bit closer to the West Midlands?

I've contacted Dundee and there going to send some information - but it's kind of too far but I guess the information won't hurt.

By the way, how did you know that Dundee did the course?

Sorry I dont know of anywhere closer. The only reason I know is because I did my RGN training there and I'm considering doing the conversion course next September for mental health. Good luck in your search though.
