Course summary

This innovative Post Graduate Diploma is delivered live online (Distance Learning), providing practical support to qualified nurses to deliver advanced practice in a community setting, and undertaking quality improvement or service evaluations. On completion of this course, you will have met the NMC requirements of a SCPHN Occupational Health Nurse and will feel confident in your ability to manage complex cases, deliver advanced practice interventions, deliver quality improvement and evaluate changes made. Our course is designed to support ‘live’ improvement projects and service evaluations. It appreciates the dynamic and complex environment of contemporary service provision and includes real case studies and presentations from experienced people with a track record of delivery in quality improvement and service evaluation. The underpinning philosophy is engagement-‘all share, all learn’-and therefore, the course provides opportunities for students to learn, support, and challenge each other in their improvement efforts. The course is 40% theory and 60% practice and this is integrated across the duration of the course. You will undertake the theoretical component in the University, and undertake the practice component in a community setting under the supervision of a qualified Practice Assessor and Practice Supervisor from the defined area of practice.
