Common Induction Standards
This programme offers a solid knowledge set that covers current legislation and practical experience and enables care staff to work both effectively and safely. All mandatory elements are covered, such as First Aid, Health and Safety and Manual Handling. All course content is structured around the Skills for Care guiding principles and knowledge sets and log books of progress are completed to take back to the workplace

This course provides a solid induction for those coming to work in Health and Social Care and serves as a practical refresher for existing staff.

The following units can be completed as a one week course or be divided into a one day a week course over a five week period to suit your training requirements.

Standard 1 -Principles of Care
Standard 2 -Understanding the Organisation and role of the worker
Standard 4 –Communicating effectively
Standard 5 –Recognising and responding to abuse and neglect
Standard 6 –Developing as a worker
First Aid
Medication Awareness
Infection Control
Health and Safety
Manual Handling

Each standard has learning outcomes in the form of knowledge sets which must be fully understood and completed during the recommended 12 week induction period. However these logbooks can be completed and signed off using Skills for Care log books, provided on each training day as evidence of learning. There after care staff use their working time to consolidate what they have learned in training sessions and to transfer this knowledge into effective practical experience in the workplace with regular supervision.

Learning outcomes achieved can be used as evidence towards NVQ and at the end of the course a certificate is issued that enables the learner to register with the General Social Care Council.
