It has been designed for qualified staff from a variety of professional backgrounds, including nurses and operating department practitioners, as well as allied health professionals such as cardiac catheterisation laboratory technicians, respiratory physiologists, physiotherapists and bioscience physiologists. Demonstrating an agile and responsive approach to learning, the programme will develop and embed additional skills and knowledge and enable you to provide expert cardiothoracic care, deliver effective supervision and leadership, and work towards advanced practice.\n\n**What you'll study**\nYou will have a choice of routes within this programme, enabling you to focus on either the journey of patients who have ongoing cardiothoracic disease requiring long-term care, or patients who present in need of care in cardiac catheterisation laboratories and theatres.\n\nAs such, you will focus on patient safety and the prevention of harm or specialise in interventions and surgery of a cardiothoracic nature.\n\nAn additional core module sets the context of advanced practice, while a further elective choice is drawn from the faculty’s professional development portfolio.",
