Amcanion cyffredinol
This module aims to complete the knowledge related to therapeutics and prescribing as set out in the PA curriculum. The module will introduce more complex issues around therapies, including poly-pharmacy and complexities related to co-morbidities. Students will be further exposed to prescribing safety and clarity in prescribing to aid supervising clinicians when signing drug administration charts and infusion charts. Students will consolidate their knowledge on the indications and monitoring/ follow-up of patients.
Cynnwys cwrs
Consolidating knowledge and understanding following on from the first module. This module will complete the areas of competence related to prescribing and cover therapeutic interventions for the remaining conditions as set out in the PA curriculum. The management of medical emergencies and more common but particularly bespoke drugs including insulins and anti-coagulation, together with the use of guidelines and in particular the British National Formulary will be covered. The participation of patients and carers in decision making and making informed consent will inform on the application of bespoke clinical practice. These main subject areas will combine with the other modules in a spiral approach to curriculum delivery to optimise the learning on the PA program
