Schizophrenia Awareness Course

3.5(2)

By Elearncollege

Description Schizophrenia Awareness Diploma  One of the most widespread mental illnesses that everyone in a hundred people experience at one point or the other in their lives, schizophrenia, is related to psychosis. It is a complex mental condition surrounded by misconceptions. Health professionals specialising in mental health disagree on this condition. The Schizophrenia Awareness Diploma course is aimed at professionals in the healthcare sector. Still, it is also suitable for any individual who wants to learn more about the condition to provide better support to people who have this condition. During this Schizophrenia Awareness Diploma course, the students will be taught the various issues that people with schizophrenia face, along with the best methods or practices to help manage these issues. What is at the root of this mental condition is unknown. Still, most professionals who specialise in the field agree that the reason could be a mix of environmental and genetic factors. The belief is that some individuals are more susceptible to developing the condition. That specific situation may trigger the development of this illness, like some stressful event or substance abuse. The Schizophrenia Awareness Diploma course will help you understand the disorder, its causes, and potential treatments. The topics have been divided into separate units, designed to help you acquire a deep knowledge of this mental condition, how it manifests in the individuals who have it, and the different medications and therapies which have proved helpful in managing the symptoms of the condition. The Schizophrenia Awareness Diploma course has been designed to be studied through online mode. Registration for the course and the materials for it are available 24×7. The online system design is intuitive and straightforward, which allows focusing on course materials. You do not have to waste time trying to learn how the system works. To complete the Schizophrenia Awareness Diploma course and receive the diploma, you have to score 80% or above during the final test. In this quiz, you have to answer multiple-choice questions. The process is simple - work through every slide in the course. On your progress bar, everyone you go through will be ticked off as you complete it. After going through each one, you can sit for the multiple-choice test and score the required 80%. If you do not achieve the necessary marks on the first try, you can attempt the test as often as you need to because there is no limit on the number of times you can try the quiz. We do not limit how long you stay on our courses. You are free to study at your comfortable pace, and the courses adapt to your speed. What you will learn   1: An introduction to schizophrenia  2: The causes and signs of schizophrenia  3: Diagnosis of schizophrenia  4: Finding a healthcare team  5: Starting treatment  6: Medication  7: Psychosocial approaches  8: Alternative and new research for schizophrenia  9: Adjusting life with schizophrenia  10: Coping skills and handling crises  Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college. Assessment Each unit concludes with a multiple-choice examination. This exercise will help you recall the major aspects covered in the unit and help you ensure that you have not missed anything important in the unit. The results are readily available, which will help you see your mistakes and look at the topic once again. If the result is satisfactory, it is a green light for you to proceed to the next chapter. Accreditation Elearn College is a registered Ed-tech company under the UK Register of Learning( Ref No:10062668). After completing a course, you will be able to download the certificate and the transcript of the course from the website.
