Program details

Overview

This postgraduate certificate prepares qualified practitioners for advanced roles in cardiothoracic care, where they can meet complex patient needs. It is delivered with Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital and designed for staff from nursing and operating department backgrounds. Students build understanding across four pillars of advanced practice: leadership and management, education, research and clinical care. They explore the responsibilities and drivers behind safe, person-centred care within their own scope of practice. Study is available part-time over one to three years, and it equips practitioners to assess current evidence and respond to the emerging demands of specialist cardiothoracic practice. Students learn to apply evidence, reflect on their practice and lead multidisciplinary teams, preparing them for advanced practitioner roles. They also gain confidence in shaping care within their own services.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: 2:2 or above (or equivalent) in a health or social care related subject.
