Master the theory behind clinical decision-making in this flexible, fully online 12-week module designed for advanced healthcare professionals.

About this course

Clinical reasoning is seen as a key skill that healthcare practitioners working at an advanced level need to possess. Without these skills there is clear evidence to suggest patients come to harm and learning about clinical reasoning is seen as important to meet the demands of today.

This module enables practitioners to understand the key theoretical underpinnings of clinical reasoning. This module is completely online using the latest digitally enhanced teaching techniques and delivered asynchronously (in your own time) and synchronously (through workshops, group activities and tutorial support).
