Aims
The aim of this module is to facilitate you, the Nursing Associate, to understand key anatomy and physiology across the lifespan. It will explore the impact of medicines, develop your understanding of pharmacology, and how these link to your ability to deliver effective care.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Demonstrate an understanding of the key anatomy and physiology of the individual across the lifespan.
2.
Identify and apply the knowledge, skills and ability required to meet people’s needs in relation to physical daily needs.
3.
Demonstrate your knowledge of the foundations of safe and effective medicines management.
4.
Identify factors that may adversely impact safe and effective care provision.
