Course details
The core modules are designed to link with your clinical practice setting where you will complete a supervised practice portfolio in support of your learning. Mental and Public Health will be threaded through out the core module, as well as the components of Advanced Practice (Leadership, Education, Clinical Practice and Research) in an integrated way enabling you to demonstrate these components in practice.
There will be some element of options available in a choice between two of the three: Community Rehabilitation for Long Term Conditions; Community Rehabilitation for Health Ageing; Mental Health in Non-Mental Health settings.
The programme will rely on your multi-professional credentials and there is an expectation that you will participate and support the learning of others throughout the course.
The learning and teaching approach will adopt a variety of methods of blended delivery. Case studies and your own experiences will be used to inform and challenge your learning which will be integrated into practice throughout the programme.
Teaching will include keynote lectures, small group work, practical sessions, project supervision, tutor-led tutorials and seminars, clinical practice learning, and guided independent study.
