BS3119 Western Medicine for Safe Chinese Medicine Practice 1

Taught by Tan Tock Seng Hospital, National Health Group lecturers, this module develops the knowledge and skills required for appropriate patient assessment, recognition of common clinical presentations, identification of serious illness and physiological deterioration, and appropriate referral within the scope of Chinese medicine practice. Emphasis is placed on patient safety, clinical reasoning, disease progression, red-flag recognition, and communication rather than independent Western medical diagnosis or treatment.
