Course summary

All healthcare professionals require clinical examination skills to carry out accurate assessments of patients of all ages and inform their healthcare journey. Caring for children and young adults in primary care is influenced by multiple complex factors and demands skilled assessment and management. This stand-alone advanced professional development course offered by the University of Bolton will help develop your clinical examination skills in babies, children and young adults. Our expert team will guide you through taking a history in a systematic and organised way so that you can assess risk, identify normal presentations and distinguish these from abnormal findings. You’ll learn to identify red flags, undertake differential diagnosis to treat and manage these conditions, and assess the need for further detailed investigation or referral to maintain the physiological, emotional and mental wellbeing of children and young adults in your care. We’ll support you to develop advanced communication skills and undertake remote consultations. You’ll learn to assess common systemic diseases such as asthma and dermatological conditions, and identify, manage and monitor children and young people who are at risk or failing to thrive. We’ll guide you as you learn to undertake the six-week baby check of development assessment for diagnosis and onward referral. We’ll also explore the legal, ethical and safeguarding issues involved in working with children and young adults.
