Course Description

The Master of Science in Advanced Clinical Practice is intended for those qualified nurses who want to improve their skills across the four pillars of advanced clinical practice. The programme will equip prospective candidates with the knowledge, skills and professional behaviours (values and attitudes) to work at an advanced clinical level, exercise autonomy and decision-making in the context of complexity, uncertainty and varying levels of risk, and hold accountability for the decisions that they are required to make.
Prospective students for the Advanced Clinical Practice course are envisaged to come from a range of clinical nursing areas and are working in a variety of specialties, settings or sectors. They will have the opportunity to gain the skills and knowledge that will allow them to extend their scope of practice to better meet the needs of the patients under their care. Developing advanced clinical practice skills is considered an important component of contemporary workforce planning.
