Mental Capacity Act and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards Online Course

This online course describes in detail the many facets and procedures of the Mental Capacity Act. This includes who the act affects, when it applies and how to assess capacity. It will also explain the procedures that can be put in place in the home or workplace to ensure best practices are followed, so that people are treated fairly at all times.
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: Introduction
- Module 2: What is the Mental Capacity Act?
- Module 3: Assessing Capacity
- Module 4: The Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards
