About this course

 

The Graduate Diploma in Intensive Care Nursing is designed for registered nurses currently working in the Intensive Care environment. This course is intended to assist registered nurses working in this area to become clinical leaders.

As a registered nurse working in the Intensive Care environment, you are expected to provide sophisticated care and advice to critically ill patients and their families. This requires the application of advanced physiological knowledge during the assessment and management of patients who may be experiencing single or multiple organ dysfunctions. The course will provide you with the specific knowledge, skills and attributes to provide care to this challenging group of patients.

Completion of the Graduate Diploma program can be used as credit towards a Masters degree in the discipline or a pathway into the Master of Nursing.
