Health & Social Care
If you plan to work within either health or social care then please allow me to introduce our courses for your consideration.The Introduction to Health and Social Care is perfect for individuals who wish to ease gently back into education or who have left school with minimal qualifications. This course leads nicely into the next level of either health or social care studies, where many of the subjects are at Intermediate 2 to Higher Level and demand higher entry qualifications. The two HNC courses in either Social Care or Health Care prepare those students who wish to access University for Nursing or Social Sciences, or registration with the Scottish Social Services Council.
We also have two very successful Scottish Wider Access courses in Nursing and Social Sciences, and are proud of our partnership arrangements with nearby Universities. Successful candidates must undergo a Disclosure Scotland check, and for some health related courses, students must undertake an immunisation programme for Hepatitis ‘B’. We will assist and direct you in all requirements that are necessary.
The team of lecturers and support staff within Health and Social Care, are willing and ready to support you and I would be happy to speak with you and give you any information you require.

Success Stories
I was a househusband looking after two children before coming back to College.I wasn’t very good at studying when I was younger so I thought I’d come back into education to make a real change to my life and learn about something I care about – social problems.
I’m planning on going to uni next year – my course here at Coatbridge College has been a great experience. It’s been tough at times but I’ve really enjoyed my time here.
