Health Promotion in Healthcare Practice - Module NS6502

Helping people stay well is a vital part of healthcare, and healthcare professionals play an important role in promoting health and reducing inequalities.   

This 12-week, Level 9 Micro-credential is for nurses, midwives and allied health professionals who want to build confidence in supporting health and wellbeing as part of their everyday practice.  

You’ll explore the principles, models and theories that underpin health promotion, and consider how behaviour change strategies can be used across different care settings.   

The module will also help you understand how programmes are developed and evaluated, and how your role can support prevention, equity and empowerment.  

You’ll also reflect on the values, policies and partnerships that shape health promotion, and how to work effectively with individuals, families and communities.  

This module is associated with Infection Prevention and Control Leadership - MSc. It can be taken as a standalone micro-credential or as part of a pathway to a larger award.
