TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT


The NHS needs information pro- fessionals more than ever. As the debate surrounding IT systems for the NHS continues, health ser- vices are becoming more and more reliant on employees with knowl- edge of both health and informa- tion communication technologies to keep pace with the changing landscape.


A course in health informatics, such as the one at the Information School, University of Sheffield, will propel you right to the heart of the fastest-growing area of the health sector.


Health informatics is the cutting- edge fusion of health service deliv- ery and information communica- tions technologies (ICTs). From the first suspicion of a health prob-


lem through confirmation to cure, information plays a fundamental role in helping to diagnose, treat, manage and prevent recurrence or transmission of disease.


Whether you are a current health professional looking to move into a growth area, or an information professional who wants to get in- volved in health, health informat- ics needs you.


New systems are emerging con- stantly, to analyse health data, manage information and develop web interfaces. As a health infor- matics graduate, you will be shap- ing the very future of health care.
