Advanced Interventions and Evaluation in Mental Health




This module aims to support the acquisition of knowledge, skills and attributes that are necessary to plan, implement and evaluate mental health interventions at an advanced level. Emphasis will be on collaboration, clinical confidence and leadership. It is relevant to mental health professionals who have an interest in, or require an understanding of biopsychosocial strategies to address complexity in practice. The module will build on existing knowledge and skills via appraisal of evidence, and reflective learning with support to establish enduring communities of practice beyond the classroom.
The module is aimed at senior mental health staff of all disciplines who have a responsibility for engaging and managing complex mental health care situations. It forms a key part of our Advanced Clinical Practice route in mental health, but can be taken as a standalone module and related broadly across the mental health clinical terrain.
