Opleiding: PGCE Dual Diagnosis
Learning purpose
In the UK it is estimated that one third of psychiatric patients with serious mental illness have a substance misuse problem and half of clients engaged with the drug and alcohol sector have some form of mental health problem. 'Dual Diagnosis', the co-occurrence of psychiatric illness and substance disorders, is increasingly recognised as a substantial problem in health and social care across Europe.
In 2004, the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA), stated that the phenomenon of "dual diagnosis" has reached a critical point in Europe, with adverse affects on both clients and staff. The Post Graduate Certificate in Dual Diagnosis is recognised at the first of its kind in the UK and Europe and is open to health and social care professionals working with this client group, either directly or indirectly, within the statutory and voluntary sectors.
Programme
There are two modules that together make up this programme Foundations in working with Dual Diagnosis and Assessment and Treatment in working with Dual Diagnosis.
The programme includes critical discussion on current response and practice in the management of dual diagnosis; current policies and evidence based treatment; and critical evaluation on ways of improving practice within the area of dual diagnosis, including engagement, screening and assessment.
Students will generally commence their programme of study in the September (Semester 1), and attend one day a week (usually a Thursday).
Entry Requirements
We welcome applications from graduates with a good honours degree, or equivalent qualification, in an appropriate subject. We also consider candidates with other relevant qualifications and individuals with a minimum of three years' work experience. Those without formal qualifications need to demonstrate relevant work experience and the ability to study at postgraduate level.
English language requirements
You must have competence in English language and we normally require Grade C GCSE or an equivalent qualification. The most common English Language requirements for international students are IELTS 6.5 or TOEFL (paper based) 575 or TOEFL (internet based) 90 with specified minimum scores for each component.
