Introduction To Enhanced Learning And Resources For Neonatal AHP Roles
As neonatal AHP roles continue to evolve, the online Enhanced Learning And Resources For Neonatal AHP Roles course supports enhanced-level development beyond the neonatal AHP foundation modules published in 2022. It brings together role-relevant eLearning and curated links across four themes: clinical practice, leadership and management, education, and research.
Use it to develop advanced clinical knowledge in your specialty, strengthen supervision and teaching capability, and build the skills needed to engage with evidence, quality improvement and (where relevant) research governance in neonatal settings.
After completing this course, you should be able to:
