Handling Information in a Care Setting Online Course

Data protection (Related online course: Data Protection in the Workplace) is a big concern for many people, and whilst nobody wants any details about them getting into the wrong hands, this is especially the case when it comes to medical records.
Those working in a case setting typically have a lot of personal information about a patient, and so it is extremely important that such information is handled and safeguarded correctly and securely.
This short online course provides an introduction to the concept of handling information in care settings. It will look at some key legislation, as well as explaining the role that confidentiality plays in developing trusting relationships with the people in your care. It will also define key terms such as 'need to know' and 'consent'.
There are multiple choice questions at the end of each unit. Those who successfully achieve the minimum mark required to pass these assessments are rewarded with a printable certificate.
An e-learning course is ideal for those who cannot get time away from the workplace and do not require a tailored course which deals with specific risks. If you do, then an open course or bespoke/in-house course will be much more suitable for your requirements.
The course comprises the following modules:
- Module 1: Legislation
- Module 2: Putting It Into Practice
