Course Overview

A duty of care is the requirement that all health and social care professionals, and organisations
providing health and care services, must put the interests of service users first.


Course Content

Duty of care training online explains that working in the health and social care sector involves working with lots of different people with a variety of needs, dependencies, backgrounds and wishes.

As a care worker, you have a duty of care towards all the people you're involved with during your working hours. This means you have to employ a reasonable level of care, to ensure they're kept safe from harm, abuse and injury.

The course gives you an introduction to the concept of duty of care, giving staff a clear starting point before looking at how it applies day to day.

Duty of care training online covers how duty of care affects your work, so staff understand the practical implications, rather than only the abstract principle.

The course covers what to do if you come across a duty of care dilemma, and where to go for support or advice, giving staff a clear course of action rather than uncertainty about who to turn to.

Duty of care training online includes some practical examples of duty of care situations, grounding the training in realistic scenarios rather than only theory.
