The Foundation Degree in Health and Social Care Management course has a multi-agency approach that encompasses social services, the NHS, third sector agencies and independent sectors.
You will research and gain essential knowledge in the areas of support management, service co-coordinators and other management roles within health and care. In Year 2 you will take up a placement or work part time in a health and social care setting which enables you to work with a variety of people and in a multi-agency environment.
The modules you will study involving placements, could complement current care work employment or voluntary work.
On successful completion of the Foundation Degree, students have the opportunity to progress directly to Year 3 of the BSc(Hons) in either Health and Social Care Management or Community Health and Wellbeing to top-up to an honours degree.
