Course summary

This programme is designed for students to develop care delivery and decision making skills within the multi-disciplinary care sector, to develop personal, academic and clinical skills to allow for a practice that is evidence based, compassionate and professional and to allow for individuals to demonstrate integrity and to develop their role in supporting best practice and in line with person-centred approaches. Students will engage with reflective activities to enable individuals to link theory to practice, engage with contemporary issues in relation to the biological, psychological and sociological implications to health and social care. Students will explore the legal and political standards as well as the regulatory bodies which influence best practice, paying particular attention to the local and national policy drives implemented to tackle health and social care issues and develop a critical and analytical perspective to decision making and enhancing own practice. What is unique about this programme is that it is designed to not only allow for students wanting to get into the health and social care sector but to also develop individuals within their current position and to progress registering professional qualifications or to complete the level 6 full degree qualification. This Degree is Validated by the University of Hull.
