We’re delighted to advise that RCSI’s innovative part-time interprofessional postgraduate programme in Human Factors in Patient Safety is now available to complete in one year as a Postgraduate Diploma or over two years as a Postgraduate Master’s Degree.  The progamme brochure can be viewed here.

This programme supports candidates who wish to become experts in delivering patient safety and quality improvement initiatives in acute hospitals. The programme is positioned at level 9 on the NFQ and is a fully inter-professional programme developed to meet the needs of surgeons, anaesthesiologists, emergency medicine doctors, obstetricians, pharmacists, nurses and midwives working in the hospital setting, as well as safety and quality managers.

The programme is now open for enrolment and will commence as scheduled in September 2020. If COVID-19 restrictions apply in the autumn that impact onsite delivery then the programme is ready to commence with online delivery.  Places will be offered on an ongoing basis during the summer so early application is advisable.

You can find out more about the programme from the attached flyer or by clicking here to register your interest, request a call or read testimonials from graduates of the programme.

The Human Factors team at RCSI Surgical Affairs would be delighted to hear further from you at MScHumanFactorsPS@rcsi.ie if you should have any queries or questions.
