PgC Enhanced Health Assessment: Practice Development

... United Kingdom
... University of Cumbria

Course Overview

This programme of study has been created to align with workforce development and supports the progression of staff, in accordance with the standards set by professional, statutory and regulatory bodies such as the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)and the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC). The 2 modules of this programme are contemporary, in that they meet the needs of the stakeholders and will continue to do so in the future.

This programme will give you knowledge, understanding and competency in communication, consultation and history taking skills, along with physical examination and clinical decision-making skills. Once seen as the remit of the medical profession, these skills are now widely utilised in healthcare practice by many different health professions. This meets the changing demands within the clinical environment within all healthcare professions. Changes to roles and responsibilities have been inevitable and in recent times, we have seen students from many health professions gain enhanced assessment skills, which they have utilised in their practice. Nurses, paramedics, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and pharmacists, now study these modules in order to develop their practice and improve the service they provide to patients/service users. This programme and the modules within it, support self-development whilst meeting the demands of the services in which you practice. It will enhance your assessment, examination and clinical decision making skills. Although it does not confer upon you the status of advanced practitioner or diagnostician, these enhanced skills will allow you to fulfil a practice gap which exists between post-registration practitioner and advanced practitioner. It will develop your history taking and physical examination skills, to a level where you are able to differentiate normal from abnormal presentations, communicate your findings accurately to clinical colleagues and refer appropriately those who may require more detailed assessment or management.
