HEALO6402 Perioperative Nursing Practice

This unit explores the applied role of the advanced clinical nurse in perioperative settings. Through this unit students engage in the application of advanced level clinical reasoning in pre, intra and post-operative clinical contexts across the lifespan. This unit focuses on the global, national and local quality and safety standards that provide the guiding principles of quality care. An inquiry-based learning framework contextualised through clinical experience will enable students to critically analyse and apply evidence based clinical reasoning within the perioperative setting for the safe and effective care of the patient experiencing surgical intervention

Commonwealth supported place (CSP)

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).

2025 contribution amount* $578
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $578

Grandfathered contribution amount - 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 Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways 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.

Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.
