Our postgraduate degree in Mental Health features sophisticated thematic areas, providing students with high-quality content that will help them develop techniques for applying self-care in patients, allowing the individual to engage in a process of prevention. Additionally, we will enhance students' communication skills to foster solid relationships with patients, explaining the issues they face and the path they must follow in their medical process. Furthermore, they will develop a proactive attitude toward continuous improvement and the evaluation of services in response to the new challenges and demands in population health.
