This course is aimed at registered podiatrists, physiotherapists and nurses, who wish to extend their scope of practice into the field of injection therapies in the foot and ankle. It may be of particular interest to those practitioners who have a keen interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) or surgical practice. It provides you with the opportunity to advance your practice using the theoretical knowledge which underpins the clinical practice of injection therapies in the foot and ankle.
Upon successful completion of this course, you must complete a period of mentored clinical practice prior to using the techniques in practice. This is a requirement of the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists.
Please note that the mentored clinical practice is not included within this course and must be undertaken under the supervision of a pre-arranged mentor. The University will support the supervised clinical practice in order to help you meet the requirements, but it is your responsibility to obtain a suitable mentor for the supervising roll. The mentor must be approved by the University.
