This field-specific module will facilitate the development of the underpinning knowledge and skills required to understand the pathophysiology of disease processes, and enable you to respond proactively and rapidly to signs of deterioration or distress in mental, physical, cognitive and behavioural health, and use this knowledge to make evidence-based professional clinical decisions.
In addition, the module will critically review and apply the impact of pharmacological interventions in management of disease and individual health. In so doing, it will examine psychological, physiological and cultural principles underpinning the safe and effective administration and optimisation of medicines.
