Bangor University’s Wrexham Campus

Studying at our Wrexham Campus is like being part of a family. It is dedicated to Health Science subjects and we run Bachelor of Nursing (hons) courses in the fields of adult, child and mental health, and BSC (hons) Radiography and Bachelor of Midwifery courses here.

Bangor's Wrexham Campus is the only place in North East Wales where students can enrol on these NHS funded courses (which covers fees and a contribution towards living expenses) with placements within the BCUHB North Wales hospital region.

Our Wrexham Health Science campus has a dedicated library with helpful subject specific staff on site. Our students get the opportunity to connect with all of the academic staff at this smaller campus that has an excellent student to staff ratio. Our experienced staff come from a wide range of clinical backgrounds e.g.: radiography, midwifery, acute nursing such as A&E, cardiac, medical, surgical, theatre, as well as community and district nursing.

Radiography is one of the professions allied to medicine. Diagnostic radiography is an invaluable aid in the diagnosis of disease and a designated lab is also equipment to practice with the variety of imaging and reporting.

Skills Lab

We also have a well-equipped skills lab for all nursing fields where students can practice their clinical skills on our mannequins and where we deliver patient simulation teaching caring for patients with acute and chronic disease. Here students can carry out injections, catheterisation, wound dressings, and respond to the vital signs of blood pressure and temperature readings with our mannequins in a safe environment.  

Placements

The Wrexham Maelor Hospital and Spire Hospital have very close links with the School of Health Sciences and are a two-minute walk away. They both provide practice placements for the undergraduate nursing students during their three-year studies and their staff make up the major part of the post registration student body. The Maelor is the largest single site hospital in North Wales and has recently undergone an extensive multi-million-pound programme of modernisation and has growing academic status in conjunction with the University of Wales College of Medicine.

Specialisms & facilities at the Maelor include the Emergency department, Intensive Therapy Unit, Stroke Rehabilitation, Orthopaedics, Medicine and Surgery, Renal Dialysis Unit, Out Patient Services for Ophthalmology, Endoscopy, and a variety of surgical day case procedures and well as a maternity unit, Mental Health Units and the Prison Health services   Our students experience a variety of these placements throughout their studies.
