Course summary

The course will provide opportunity for healthcare professionals to be forward thinking practitioners who are armed with ability to utilise current evidence-based practice and to problem solve in a more autonomous manner. When healthcare practitioners are more knowledgeable, they can challenge practice in order to advance patient care. The course will allow students to grow and develop as questioning and autonomous practitioners. This course is designed to develop your knowledge and understanding and ability to demonstrate application and clinical competence which will be evidenced through Critical Care Steps 2 competencies and Critical Care Steps 3 competencies.

Teaching

A range of teaching, assessment and learning activities will be used as a means of offering appropriately real life challenging learning opportunities, allowing flexibility and a range of resources that encourage engagement. Learning will be scaffolded week on week to build on and develop knowledge which can then be demonstrated in clinical practice. The course modules will be delivered in a flexible manner through a mixture of on campus and online virtual learning environment settings.

Assessment

Modules will be sequential to avoid assessment bunching and a range of different assessment types will be adopted as requested by clinicians and to meet Steps 2 and Steps 3 competencies.
