PARAMEDIC CLINICAL DIAGNOSTICS 2 | Federation University

HCPAR6012 PARAMEDIC CLINICAL DIAGNOSTICS 2

This second Clinical Diagnostics unit is designed to build upon and extend knowledge and skill developed in Clinical Diagnostics 1. In conjunction with the course Clinical Paramedicine 2 this develops the student's understanding of pre-hospital care to Advanced Life Support Level (ALS). Initially the student will review paramedic care models and the practice of paramedicine. Medical health assessment and diagnosis, basic electro cardiology and drug administration systems will be reviewed as a basis for the main topics relating to trauma rapid assessment and evacuation, and ALS medical emergencies. Utilising models of practice and CPG's the student, in a small team, will plan and present the main topics of the course relating to trauma, rapid assessment and evacuation. Throughout the unit a problem-based learning model will be used and students will be constantly encouraged to develop critical thinking processes.

2026 grandfathered contribution amount^ $1,192

^ If you are a continuing student who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Psychology and Social Work bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
