Pre-requisite: Students must be enrolled in one of the following Programs: MNRS or MNRH or PDEV or SING or MMPO

Synopsis

This course will focus on trends in the organisation of health care. Students are encouraged to examine health policy within their own clinical specialty, whether that be nursing, allied health, midwifery, mental health, or rural and remote practice. Factors influencing the development of health policy will be examined. Since this course works from the premise that health systems are constantly changing in line with health policy decisions, a particular emphasis of the course is on change and the management of the change process.
