DESCRIPTIONThis pathway is designed for experienced critical care
practitioners who wish to advance their clinical practice, develop
their professional career and enhance their knowledge of research
and evidence-based health care. The programme builds on your
existing skills and experience to enable you to lead and support
the development and subsequent delivery of evidence-based practice.
It will enable you to develop a critical understanding of research
methods and methodologies; use theoretical concepts from nursing
and other disciplines to generate researchable questions focused
around critical care; develop a scientific basis for examining
critical care practice; use the skills of critical reflection; and
understand the political context of healthcare and how it
influences practice.
It is a suitable programme for practitioners from a wide variety of
critical care areas, for example: accident and emergency
departments; cardiac care areas; intensive care and high dependency
units; liver units; renal units; perioperative departments; and
neuroscience departments. Students undertake core modules in
critical care, evidence-based practice and healthcare research. In
addition students select options from a range of areas
including:
- Advanced assessment skills
- Prescribing (for eligible practitioners)
- Clinical specialities
- Professional development and organisational change
- Leadership
- Specialist practice portfolios.
Other options from our BSc programme may also be available. Students who have already studied clinically focused modules at undergraduate or graduate level at King's may be able to incorporate that study into this programme, subject to certain limits, provided that the credits have not already contributed to an award. Modules studied elsewhere may be incorporated through accreditation of prior certificated learning (subject to a successful accreditation claim).
Students progressing to the MSc undertake a substantial research or service development project relevant to their own area of practice.
