Care of Deteriorating or Acutely Unwell Adult

This practice related module provides students with the opportunity to develop a critical problem solving approach to the assessment and management of the deteriorating and acutely unwell adult. This module will enhance the students' assessment skills enabling them to recognise changes in a patients' clinical condition and communicate findings to colleagues in the multidisciplinary team. It will examine the management of these patients while implementing human factors principles to improve patient safety.
