The MSc Enhancing Clinical Practice is a postgraduate course, offered both part-time and full-time, to a range of healthcare professionals including those from different fields of nursing. It is anticipated that applicants will want to extend and advance the scope of their practice beyond that of initial professional registration, in order to understand the complexities of the modern-day health care environment. The award will focused on preparing a range of experienced healthcare professionals to manage the complex needs of service users in dynamic healthcare settings, whist also developing as either an educator in practice or a clinical or service manager.
The course design is motivated by the need to develop and improve systems and practices of assessment, diagnosis and care planning across agencies in order to ensure that people’s individual needs are understood and met. Emphasis should be placed upon expanding generalist skills and new ways of working that enable staff to work at the top of their skill set and across professional boundaries, in line with the philosophy of prudent healthcare. To deliver this, the current and future workforce (including those in undergraduate and postgraduate specialist training) should be skilled in areas such as shared decision-making with service users and carers, team working, prevention and population health and wellbeing and formal quality improvement techniques. The proposed course explores these requirements and equips successful graduates with relevant skills.
