HLT64121 Advanced Diploma of Nursing
HERC is pleased to offer the HLT64121 Advanced Diploma of Nursing that commenced in September 2024.
This qualification reflects the role of enrolled nurses with advanced skills who work in a specialised area of nursing practice under the direct or indirect supervision of a registered nurse.
Enrolled nurses integrate and adapt specialised, technical and theoretical knowledge to address a diverse range of clinical situations and challenges in their area of specialisation. They contribute to the continuous improvement of clinical practice using research and participation in broader organisational quality processes. Enrolled nurses retain responsibility for their own actions while remaining accountable to the registered nurse for all delegated functions. State Government funding may be available to eligible learners.
Enrolments for our HLT64121 Advanced Diploma of Nursing – Acute Care Stream are now open!
