Level 7 Advanced Clinical Practitioner
University of LincolnBrayford Pool, United Kingdom
Course overview
Advanced Clinical Practice is a multi-professional level of practice carried out by experienced clinicians. In partnership with individuals, families, and carers, they independently manage the clinical care process from start to finish. Working across traditional health and social care boundaries, they combine expert clinical skills with research, education, and leadership, enabling innovative solutions to enhance people's experience and improve outcomes.
This programme aims to develop your ability to handle a high level of autonomy and freedom when making decisions about how individuals should be cared for and treated. You can learn how to act in complex and unpredictable situations, while using person-centred approaches to make a diagnosis. You can also develop the knowledge to appropriately select, undertake, or request a range clinical tests, and analyse, interpret, and act on the results to formulate a plan of care for patients.
Finally, you can build skills in initiating and evaluating a range of interventions and drive service improvements. This programme follows the Advanced Clinical Practitioner Integrated Degree Standard, details of which can be found by visiting their website: https://www.instituteforapprenticeships.org/apprenticeship-standards/advanced-clinical-practitioner-integrated-degree-v1-0 standard.
