Diagnostic tests for patients with known or suspected Cardiac conditions. E.C.G's, blood pressure recordings, ambulatory monitoring, echocardiogram, pacemaker checks. Wythenshawe hospital also carries out work in a Cath lab and cardiac surgery.
Developed skills in E.C.G. Interpretation. Broadened my knowledge of Cardiology. Particularly cardiac devices as I had little knowledge before I started the course. New skill regarding cath lab. New experiences and learning about PCI procedures and other procedures performed in the cath lab such as biopsy and valve replacement.
Very much. The course is allowing me to learn all of the background knowledge I need for an exciting and fulfilling role in the NHS.
Well structured. The degree is covering medical topics such as Physiology and anatomy while teaching about the NHS and how it works. Occasionally, there have been technical issues with teaching of lectures through Microsoft Teams.
We are given plenty of study time and support in the form of meetings which allow us to ask questions or ask for help. We get to see all aspects of Cardiology.
We are offered support through email. We often talk to tutors through Microsoft Teams. Tutors respond quickly to emails and act upon queries or any problems.
The qualification of Healthcare Scientist will enable me to become a cardiac Physiologist and allow me to secure a role in a Cardiology department within the NHS.
The Trust have extra curricular activities on the intranet. Manchester Metropolitan University have a wide range of extra curricular activities such as sports clubs.
Yes
Great place to learn and achieve
Apply! The degree is a great opportunity to progress in Physiology and to become a physiologist. The degree is informative and professional. I personally prefer this way of learning to an undergraduate degree alone as I've tried both.
