HCPAR6013 Clinical Diagnostics and Practice
This Clinical Diagnostic & Practice unit will build upon and extend knowledge and skills developed in first semester clinical courses. In conjunction with Clinical Paramedicine 2 this unit develops students understanding of pre-hospital care to the Advanced Life Support level. The learning in this unit focuses on the paediatric patient and the relevant guidelines. It also looks at environmental issues effecting patient health, as well as the impact of drug overdose. This unit looks at the ambulance treatment of endocrine emergencies as well as the fitting patient. Sepsis and autonomic dysreflexia will also be examined in the pre-hospital setting.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2026 student contribution amount: $1,192
2026 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,192
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
