PGCert Critical Care

This programme is made up of 3 modules;

Fundamental Critical Care (20 credits)

Advanced Critical Care (20 credits)

Work Based Learning module (20 credits).  

This Part-time programme is designed to facilitate and guide the students effectively and safely in caring for those individuals with critical care needs.  The major focus is on the provision of care in a holistic manner and will build on existing knowledge and skills to establish knowledgeable practitioners involved in the care of acutely/critically ill patients.

Module one is designed for any practitioner working in an acute area and module two is for practitioners working specifically in critical care environments.

Research Opportunities

The academics involved with this PGCert have extensive links with external bodies, companies and the 3rd sector, which are fully utilised in ensuring that the modules are relevant to the modern work and research environment graduates will enter. They are also all experienced Nurse practioners who still have active links to the local NHS trust ensuring that modern clinical practice is embedded within the programme.
