In a changing healthcare environment, it is becoming increasingly important for healthcare professionals to carry out research and to communicate the findings to a wide range of audiences using a diversity of formats.<\/p>\n<p>As a registered nurse, being able to develop, plan, deliver and report on a systematic investigation is an important attribute to address real world problems and challenges. Building upon your previous knowledge in research design and methodology, you will be supported to develop your own study into an appropriate and relevant key area of professional practice or interest. From inception to completion, you will utilise key skills such as reviewing and critiquing literature, data analysis and interpretation of the findings, implications for practice, limitations, reflections, and recommendations for further study and future practice.<\/p>\n<p>To develop and enhance your ability to work independently, the emphasis is on experiential learning during this module. Lectures and seminars will be provided for key topics and a range of learning resources will be accessible through relevant virtual learning platforms.

You will also focus on the indications and contraindications of anti-coagulants in this module, by exploring the pharmacology of this class of drugs. The module will also explore managing medication with individuals with complex conditions, looking at the notion of polypharmacy. Prescribing will also be a feature of this module, exploring the components of a consultation where prescribing occurs, to ensure you are \u201cprescriber ready\u201d (NMC 2018) by the end of your course.
