Content

During the course Clinical Medicine & Pharmacotherapy 8 "Complex Care Issues" in academic year 3 attention is paid to patient problems in all life phases from pre-conception to end of life. Healthy Ageing forms the theoretical framework by means of which various complex health issues are addressed. Central theme is the question of how medical care can connect to these issues in an integrated manner. Students are thus stimulated to act as Master-trained healthcare professionals, also in situations when standard interventions fail. All this after careful consideration and intercollegiate consultation regarding the medical-ethical and legal aspects that play a role in complex care problems. In a case study all these aspects of complex care are illustrated based on a patient for whom the candidate was responsible for the most part of the coaching and/or treatment.
