About

The Master of Child and Family Health (Karitane) provides registered nurses and registered midwives with theoretical knowledge and associated skills that prepare them to work autonomously and across a variety of clinical settings with children and families.

Our graduates are able to apply advanced nursing concepts and analysis, and lead nursing practice to promote optimal health outcomes for children and families. This involves, among other things, design, implementation and evaluation of advanced clinical nursing care systems, and analysis and synthesis of nursing concepts leading to a basis for advanced nursing practice and the facilitation of change.

Any other type of registration (non-practicing, limited or student) is not acceptable for this program.
