IHNA Admission requirements

  • 18 years of age and above at the time of commencement of the course*#
  • Successful completion of Plus Two or above qualification & basic computer skills.

*Mature age students (22+) may also be considered without the minimum education requirements. Each case will be reviewed individually to ascertain the capacity of the applicant to meet course requirements.

Additional Requirement

  • Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) requirement preferred by IHNA

  • Digital literacy
    1. Basic computer skills.
    2. Having own computer (desktop or laptop) to facilitate the training and assessment.

Professional Experience Placement (PEP) requirements

  • Physical requirements that are necessary to pass the course objectives are
    1. Strength: To assist with lifting and transferring a client, and perform CPR.
    2. Mobility: To bend, stoop, and bend down to the floor; ability to move around rapidly; and to move in small, confined spaces.
    3. Hearing: To hear through the stethoscope to discriminate sounds; to hear cries for help; to hear alarms on equipment and emergency signals; and various overhead pages.

    5. Communication: To communicate in both verbal and written formats; and interact with clients, staff, and faculty supervisors.
  • Students must declare a disability or disorder (if any), or if they are on any medication which may require reasonable adjustments.

IHNA highly recommends students to complete the immunisation process before the PEP start date as some facilities will not provide placement to students without Immunisation.

In the event that a student fails to meet the mentioned requirements, it may lead to exclusion from their practical placements, which could potentially result in an unsuccessful completion of the course.

Our approach is to collect evidence on whether the student can perform to the standards of the workplace. This is based on the relevant unit of competency, and you’ll find these tools being used:

  • Theory Assessments (TA)
  • Knowledge Based Assessments (KBA)
  • Simulation Based Assessments (SBA)
  • Professional Experience Placement (PEP)
