We ensure that before our Care Assistants provide care they are fully trained and confident enough to step up to their responsibilities. The Company insists that all employees attend our in-house induction and training programme that not only gives them an insight into what domiciliary care is all about, but also details the Company’s mission, aims, and objectives.
Our Care Assistants are all trained in the following areas:
- Induction to the Company
- Role of the Health and Social Care Worker
- Respecting and Involving People who use our service
- Moving and Handling
- First Aid
- Medication
- Health and Safety
- Infection Control
- Food Hygiene
- Nutrition and Hydration
- Dementia Awareness
- Challenging Behaviour
- Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults
- Equality and Diversity
- Person Centred Care and Planning
Our head office houses a dedicated training room bursting with various training aids and equipment, such as electric and manual hoists, a projector and presentation screen, armchairs for moving and handling purposes, an electric multi-position bed, and various other examples of the equipment and aids the Care Assistants will find in our clients’ homes.
