Abstract

Healthcare provision has undergone many changes over the past few decades driven by patient needs, advances in science and developing technologies. Within this framework, the role of individuals and the expectations placed upon the professions allied to healthcare have evolved. Supporting the development of these allied professions is the focus of this chapter. It is essential to have a highly skilled and flexible workforce to deliver the required healthcare provision, highlighting the necessity for programmes of study to support the development of the capable practitioner.
