This text is useful for students on a variety of healthcare programmes. It is specific to those who are training at various levels and is knowledgeable about the practical issues of learning to be a practitioner. I have noticed some profession-specific acronyms which are now outdated. This is a reflection of how quickly things change in Healthcare.
