Overview

Key Features

Due to the nature of psychiatric illness (which may often be present/comorbid with other conditions and/or affect the way people behave in a variety of situations), improved knowledge of psychiatry gained from our online psychiatry diploma will benefit healthcare professionals working in fields supplementary to psychiatry and those likely to come into contact with psychiatric illness on a regular basis.

Healthcare professionals on the front line, including primary care and specialist units, need to be equipped to deal with mental health patients confidently and effectively.

On completion of this Clinical Psychiatry (Online) Postgraduate Diploma from Diploma MSc you'll be up to date with new classifications, treatments, and assessments that integrate psychological and social sciences, demonstrate how the field links to others (such as acute medicine, surgery, perinatal services, children’s services and primary care) and have an understanding of how the Capacity Acts and Mental Health Act influence delivery of services and the implications for you as a healthcare professional.
