Health Care Studies

The University of Bolton's FdA in Health Care Studies, taught by our learning partners at The Growth Company, is your chance to achieve a firm foundation of knowledge and experience in contemporary healthcare practices and methods. We offer a range of practical and work-based learning experiences to prepare you for employment and further training in the healthcare sector.

The FdA Health Care Studies taught by The Growth Company in Manchester is a golden opportunity to develop the intellectual, personal and practical skills healthcare employers seek. By studying this employment-focused foundation degree, you can develop and enhance your understanding of the principles of care, and the legal and ethical issues associated with social policy and working in the healthcare industry.

Along the way, our expert team will introduce you to theories and concepts in psychology and help you explore anatomy and physiology. We'll also encourage you to study cases where you can apply your learning and benefit from our strong emphasis on improving the quality of care delivery in the healthcare sector. With a flexible, open-minded and analytical approach to studying and to the issues raised during your studies, you should be primed to make significant progress towards your goals.

Getting out of the classroom and into the workplace is a key part of your learning. A dedicated work placement forms part of the course, where we'll encourage you to immerse yourself as a volunteer in a health and social care environment.
