Beschreibung des Programms

Every 5 seconds someone in the world will die of a stroke (World Stroke Campaign 2016). In England and Wales, a total of 1 million stroke survivors need post-acute care (Intercollegiate Stroke Working Party 2015). Although the incidence of stroke increases with age, 1 in 4 people who have a stroke is younger than 65 years old.

The purpose of the programme is to equip registered nurses working in neurological care and rehabilitation, through education and reflection on their practice, with the resources and skills to develop person-centred, partnership-focused practice in the area of neurological care and rehabilitation of adults. Particular emphasis will be placed on individuals aged 18 to 40 years old, who are relatively neglected in this area.

The Postgraduate Certificate allows nurses to return to educational study whilst working clinically. You will benefit from current theory, practice, research and innovation in nursing, health and social care practice to develop a critical understanding of contemporary health care, with a specific focus on neurological rehabilitation and care. As such, the programme will equip you with the knowledge and skills to be a critically reflective practitioner, able to provide evidence-based practice in both a local and international context.
