Foundations of Health Research Level 7 (Health CPD)

The Foundations of Health Research module is an introductory module for all those seeking to develop their knowledge and understanding of research within the context of health and care, preparing learners to engage in and apply research to real-world health and care challenges. Throughout the module, learners will explore the potential for research to improve health outcomes and practice, examine and apply the theoretical paradigms that underpin health and care research and come to appreciate the multilayered contexts that influence and must be accounted for in how research questions are identified and articulated. Learners will examine their own research capability, the research setting in which they work (or aspire to work) and the wider health and care research environment, with a focus on priority setting, public and patient involvement and engagement, and equity in research. This module is an introduction to the context and key aspects of research in health and care, with greater depth provided in subsequent modules within the Applied Health Research portfolio. This online module is delivered over 12 weeks through six two-weekly blocks of learning, supported by asynchronous resources and activities and live online tutorials and webinars. Contributions from research-active academics, specialists influencing research-led health and care in practice and service users are embedded throughout, providing a wide range of valuable perspectives through which learners can evaluate
