Nutritional Therapy Clinical Practice
"It wasn't until I started seeing clients during my clinical practice course, that I was to realise the benefit of the theory that I had completed over the two previous years. Having my tutor there during these client practice sessions helped enormously in reassuring me, and my confidence grew considerably. I now feel I have all the tools I need to offer clients the very best advice!. - Sam Silvester Those students who have completed the Nutritional Advisor & Nutritional Therapeutics courses will need to complete the Clinical Practice level if they wish to obtain the full Nutritional Therapy Diploma. The programme consists of 4 modules and 5 compulsory attendance weekends every 6 - 8 weeks. The emphasis in on case studies and students on the course have found this invaluable and really extended their skills and knowledge in this crucial area.
Clinical Practice level is all about working with and understanding clients. This includes how to evaluate the initial approach, how to refer on if appropriate, how to prepare to assess the client, understanding your role and establishing objectives with clients, how to prioritise their symptoms using other diagnostic techniques where applicable, reporting back and follow ups. This is achieved using real and complex case studies which are researched and then discussed at the five weekend workshops throughout the year.
Working constantly with the same students throughout the year allows you to share ideas and fact sheets and learn from those already in Practice.
This is an interesting and in-depth study which completes the nutritional package offered by the Kevala Centre and gives you the confidence and expertise to be able to set up a competent practice.
