Health and Social Care CertHE

Improving the physical, social or emotional lives of adults can take place in charities, homes or creative environments. This programme is an excellent opportunity for new students to gain vital skills and the adaptability to enter the changing UK workforce. It has also been designed in line with The Care Certificate, an agreed set of standards expected of support worker roles in the health and social care sectors.<br/><br/>Our lecturers believe that administering high-quality care begins with the empathy and kindness of the practitioner, and this course is ideal for anyone who is conscientious and eager to receive realistic practice in patient care. You will be able to learn through flexible and social teaching to guide you from the start of your journey to becoming competent and confident to apply for further education or to roles in the sector.<br/><br/>If youre new to health care (or are in work), you will gradually receive simulated learning experiences, lectures and seminars on campus so that when you are caring for individuals in need – you are familiar with equipment, potential hazards and will feel informed to make life-saving decisions.<br/><br/>The opportunity to train in workshops without the real consequences of errors with vulnerable patients will enable you to deliver better support, communication and kindness when you do begin to practice in varying locations across the UK and beyond.<br/><br/>Approved by the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) as a Higher Technical Qualification (HTQ). IfATE work with employers to develop and approve apprenticeships and technical qualifications. IfATE approves CertHE Health & Social Care as a HTQ aligned to the Lead Practitioner in Adult Care standard (ST0007). This means that the course has been developed in collaboration with employers so that students can develop the skills that are needed in the workplace.
