Prerequisites
Students must have studied the pre-requisite module 7HSK087 Advanced Health Assessment & Diagnostic Indicators or an equivalent course or module that meets the learning outcomes of this module prior to applying for Minor Illness – Diagnostics and Interventions; this is not to be undertaken concurrently.
Learners must be working in an environment with access to people with Minor Illness Presentations.
If you think you have studied an equivalent module to the pre-requisite at a different university, you must provide and upload the module transcript and a copy of the module handbook as part of your application so the admission tutor can assess the equivalence.
In order to study at Level 7 applicants will normally need a degree in a health-related discipline. Applicants with evidence of professional development or academic proficiency equivalent to level 6 (degree level) study will be considered but will first need to meet with the admissions tutor, Aileen Wilson, to discuss their application. Applicants with no previous level 6 study, or equivalent, will be required to complete a level 6 bridging module.
If you have non-UK academic qualifications you will need to supply evidence of comparability. The organisation ECCTIS will supply this for a reasonable fee https://www.enic.org.uk/Qualifications/SOC/Default.aspx.
You should be a qualified health care professional currently working in an appropriate area of practice and have current professional registration (NMC, HCPC etc).
