Personal safety at work course
read moreThis course is a generic course that looks at managing potential violence and/or aggression that is not client care related. The course may be suitable for, for example housing officers in social housing, people with public facing roles such as receptionists, or for staff in lone working situations such as domiciliary care. It may also be useful for care staff working in care environments where families and/or visitors may potentially display hostility towards staff. The course has been developed using actual experiences and real situations, albeit with some of the details changed for anonymity.
Dementia Care Training
read moreOver the last few decades, dementia care has changed beyond recognition. Instead of the traditional focus on the medical/organic model of dementia, dementia is thought of in a social context, where the individual is both shaped by and responding to the environment around them. We offer a number of dementia care courses, and are also happy to design something specific to your needs. A National Audit Office survey found that 201,000 people with dementia live in residential care homes. The Care Quality Commission (CQC) have only registered 124,000 care home places for dementia.
