Health & Safety in a Care Setting Online Course

A variety of entities, including local councils, the NHS, and private and voluntary organisations, oversee the operation of care homes. These establishments are unique as they serve dual purposes: they are both workplaces and living spaces for the residents. It is imperative that these environments uphold the respect for residents' dignity and autonomy while ensuring the health and safety of all is effectively safeguarded. To this end, it is crucial for all parties to be clear on their respective duties.
This e-learning course looks at the specific legal frameworks governing care homes, delineates the duties of both management and staff, and advocates for the establishment of safe work practices. This course also provides guidance on how to address typical risks and emergency scenarios that may arise in care settings. Additionally, it touches upon various elements related to the work setting and the well-being of the staff.
Targeted at professionals in the care industry, this online course serves as a foundational overview of health and safety principles applicable to their work environment.

- Module 1: Introduction
