Summary
The aim of this module is to support health and social care professionals to understand, recognise, detect, prevent and treat hospital and healthcare acquired deconditioning.
This programme will run over 12 weeks and will include live online lectures each week in addition to directed resources. Each lecture will consist of advance viewing of a short expert prepared video, advance reading of a short PowerPoint presentation and a number of key papers, followed by a two-hour live lecture.
In keeping with the ethos of the programme, the weekly videos will be available in a format which allows the learners to listen to them on a mobile application and we encourage all learners to listen to them while moving (walking/running, etc).
The programme will run from on Wednesday evenings 7-9pm (excl. 29 October) from 17 September to 10 December 2025.
Programme lead: Professor Mary Rose Sweeney
