About this module
As identified by the Department of Health document 'Supporting People with Long Term Conditions' (DOH 2005), there is a strong imperative for community based practitioners to reduce the number and frequency of hospital admissions in relation to acute exacerbations of chronic disease.
It is with this in mind that this module will provide the practitioner with the necessary skills and knowledge to empower patients in the management of their condition. It will enable the practitioner to engage with social, political and economic factors that challenge and support new ways of working.
Learning outcomes
On completion of this module you will be able to:
- Demonstrate a critical awareness of the role of the practitioner in the management of specific long term conditions and the challenges which arise from the promotion of self care in this field.
- Demonstrate understanding of progression of the identified chronic condition by interpretation of clinical data, to support the treatment of disease processes, and critically evaluate regimes initiated as a result of data received.
- Through evidence of multi-agency working in practice, critically analyse the current and future management of long term conditions.
