De Montfort University’s (DMU) MSc in Advanced Clinical Practice offers a curriculum aligned to Health Education England’s Multi- Professional Framework for Advancing Practice (NHS England, 2017).
The course has been designed so that graduates qualify with advanced level knowledge, skills and capabilities across four pillars (Clinical Practice, Leadership, Education and Research). The course has been developed for experienced Registered Health Professionals (nurses, allied health professionals such as pharmacists, paramedics, speech and language therapists, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists) working in primary, secondary and tertiary health care environments. This course provides a thorough preparation for clinicians to enable them on completion of their studies to work at a higher level of practice.
Advanced practitioners are in demand across all sectors of the health service. This course provides the opportunity to study at the highly regarded School of Nursing and Midwifery at DMU, which has over nine years’ experience of delivering Advanced Clinical Practice education. The Advanced Clinical Practice Programme throughout this time has supported the development of nurses and allied health professionals to work both safely and effectively at an advanced level of practice.
The course prepares you to become an expert clinician and clinical leader and helps you frame compassionate education that builds and develops teams. On successful completion of the course, you will have the necessary skills and confidence to be able to influence the strategic direction of patient care, and enhance the quality and standard of care delivery. Throughout the course you will be encouraged to develop knowledge, skills and competencies commensurate of an enquiring and reflective clinician.
Teaching is provided by experienced qualified advanced practitioners many of whom regularly work in clinical practice and there are strong supportive links between the Advanced Clinical Practice team and our local clinical partner organisations.
You will develop to an advanced level; essential Consultation skills, competencies in Diagnostic and Clinical reasoning enabling you to have the confidence in managing clinical complexity and issues of clinical uncertainty. The course also provides you with advanced level knowledge of Research methodologies plus contemporary Leadership principles: their application is developed within the final module, where you will research and advocate a service improvement project within your own clinical area.
Our programme of study emphasises collaboration and innovation, ensuring you are equipped to lead and shape clinical practice and service delivery for the future.
