Description

On successful completion of the module, students will be able to:

1- Evaluate the action of medication in relation to the management of acute and chronic conditions.

2- Analyse the bio-science that underpins the principles and skills for safe prescribing and administration of medication for people experiencing mental distress.

3- Demonstrate a critical awareness of evidence-based strategies to promote person-centered care in relation to medication concordance and shared decision-making.

4- Analyse appropriate evidence-based strategies to proactively manage and prevent adverse events within medication management in people experiencing mental distress.

Focus on a case study, and you will be asked to critically explore the diagnosis (relating this to ICD-10), and show an understanding of the possible medication options, and monitoring for side effects, adverse reactions, and effectiveness of the medication.

Write about 2000 words overall, 300-350 words per question.

Show an understanding of the relevant bioscience by discussing the pharmacological actions of the medications and the reasons for side effects.

Consider issues relating to consent and concordance and will need to be prepared to show an understanding of the Mental Health Act and the Mental Capacity Act.
