Course Content

This part-time, blended-learning programme enables you to choose one of two specialist pathways: Chronic Disease Management or Womens Health.

Designed by the School of Nursing, Psychotherapy and Community Health in partnership with leading nurses and midwives, the pathways address contemporary Irish healthcare issues and prepare students to work in specialist areas.

Throughout your study, youll learn how to develop a person-centred approach to care, design a structured treatment plan, work as part of a multidisciplinary team, and develop your specialist knowledge and leadership skills to enhance practice and improve patient outcomes.

Blending theory with practice
Theory is mostly taught online, while youll gain supervised practical experience and some skills are developed in our labs.

Once you graduate, you will have enhanced practice in your specialist area of care, with respect to assessment, novel treatment modes, health promotion approaches, research-based practice and health policy pertinent to your specialism.
