The MODrx Clinical Support Certificate is an online professional development programme designed for clinic-based staff who wish to enhance their understanding of obesity management without the advanced clinical or prescribing components. It provides foundational yet clinically relevant knowledge to support the delivery of safe, effective, and patient-centred obesity care within the multidisciplinary setting.
Delivered entirely online, the course combines structured teaching with self-directed study, ensuring accessibility for busy practitioners. It introduces participants to the principles of obesity as a chronic disease, including its biological, behavioural, and environmental determinants, and explores how lifestyle modification, behaviour change, and patient education contribute to successful long-term outcomes.
This programme is particularly suited to healthcare assistants, administrators, allied professionals, and support staff who are integral to patient engagement and follow-up.

The MODrx Clinical Support Certificate aims to strengthen internal team capacity, enhance patient retention, and improve service quality through informed collaboration and evidence-based practice.
On successful completion of this programme, learners will be able to:
Demonstrate a foundational understanding of obesity as a chronic, multifactorial disease, including key biological, psychological, and lifestyle factors influencing weight management.
Support patient education and engagement by promoting evidence-based lifestyle strategies and reinforcing key health messages provided by the Clinical Lead.
Contribute to patient reviews and follow-up processes, recognising progress, identifying barriers, and escalating concerns appropriately.
Apply safe signposting principles to ensure that patients requiring additional support or medical input are directed to the appropriate professional in a timely and compliant manner.
Communicate effectively and empathetically with patients, fostering trust, motivation, and adherence to treatment plans within the boundaries of a support role.
Understand the structure and governance of a compliant obesity service, recognising the importance of documentation, confidentiality, and accountability in multidisciplinary care.
