Master of Preventive Medicine
Developed for health practitioners seeking to respond within a broad patient-centred and evidence-based framework to the community's interest in prevention and healthcare participation.
With unprecedented levels of good health in an ageing population many people seek information on all preventive measures including non-pharmacological, complementary and alternative therapies.
This course balances the study of evidence-based practice with community expectations in contemporary society. It has been designed for practising clinicians with a focus on critical thinking and the application of this knowledge into current clinical practice.
