The Care Certificate

Description

The Care Certificate is a nationally recognized qualification designed to ensure that HCAs provide exceptional care to patients, with a strong emphasis on patient-centered principles and best practices. It is also recognised by the Skills for Health and Skills for Care

 The Care Certificate comprises 15 essential standards, as outlined by Skills for Health, that cover a wide spectrum of critical topics in healthcare. These standards are:

 To facilitate the achievement of these standards, our Care Certificate program is divided into three distinct courses:

 1. Mandatory Refresher Training: This course ensures HCAs stay up-to-date with essential healthcare knowledge and practices.

 2. Basic Nursing Skills 4 HCAs (1): This course covers patient-centered care, the 6Cs of nursing, and practical elements such as vital signs and blood glucose monitoring. 6Cs - Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage,

 3. Basic Nursing Skills 4 HCAs (2): This course delves into maintaining hygiene for patients, monitoring fluid and nutrition intake, increasing awareness of mental health, learning disabilities, dementia, understanding vulnerable individuals, and manual handling, including practical sessions.

 The resources we provide to candidates, such as booklets, are sourced from the Care Certificate Workbook available on the Skills Platform. Candidates are required to complete questions either during the sessions or as homework.

 Here's how the program works: Within a span of 6 months, all the required standards must be successfully completed. Upon meeting these requirements, the Care Certificate will be automatically awarded. It's worth noting that the "Basic Nursing Skills 4 HCAs" course goes beyond the Care Certificate requirements to equip candidates with additional knowledge and skills for improved client care.
