The field of knowledge covered by toxicology is very broad. However, the goal of this program is to provide nurses with sufficient knowledge in solvent-related toxicology to be able to successfully address the professional challenge of caring for patients with urgent toxicological problems.

In this sense, a program has been designed mainly aimed at the daily practice of the profession, referring to the study of those toxins that come into contact with patients most frequently, either at work or at home. On the other hand, we will try to minimize as much as possible the theoretical foundations of the subject and focus on the clinical care of the intoxicated. At the same time, we have given special importance to the practical approach required for therapeutic success.

Furthermore, it is a 100% online postgraduate certificate that provides students with comfortable study and ease, wherever and whenever they want it. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality in keeping with the current times with all the guarantees to position the nurse in a highly demanded sector.
