Management and Coordination of Gerontology Care - Module NS6412
Key information
As people live longer, the need for coordinated, high-quality care in later life has never been greater.
This 12-week, Level 9 Micro-credential is designed for registered nurses who want to deepen their knowledge of gerontological care and take a leading role in supporting older people across a range of healthcare settings.
During the module, you will explore how to coordinate and evaluate therapeutic interventions for older people within a person-centred care framework.
You will also reflect on your role in supporting older people and their families during care transitions, across home, community, residential, acute and rehabilitation settings.
The module covers ethical practice, interdisciplinary teamwork, and the importance of health promotion, coaching and supporting self-determination in later life.
This module is associated with Nursing (Older Person) - MSc, and Nursing - MSc. It can be taken as a standalone micro-credential or as part of a pathway to a larger award.
