Six courses for a new care worker's first weeks, covering the ground an inspector is most likely to ask them about.
Residential and nursing homes inducting care staff.
Ask a new care worker what they would do if they suspected abuse, how they move someone safely, or where the fire assembly point is, and the answers tell you more about a home than the policy folder does. These six are the subjects that come up first.
The fire course here is the care home version rather than the general one, because evacuating a building where residents cannot all walk out unaided is a different problem with different answers.

Homes that also want dementia, end of life, person centred care, nutrition and hydration, dignity and privacy or the Mental Capacity Act can add any of them at twenty five pounds each. Ask and we will price the set you want.
What this does not cover. This is not the Care Certificate. The Care Certificate is a separate fifteen standard programme and we sell it on its own. This bundle is the induction set that sits alongside it, and it does not replace the practical competency sign off that moving and handling and medicines both need before someone works unsupervised.
Questions
No. Every course in it is available on its own at the price shown on its own page. The bundle is priced so that one of the courses is effectively free, so it only makes sense if you want most of them.
Yes. Tell us which courses you want in and out and we will price that instead. The bundles are a starting point built from what most people in that sector ask for, not a fixed product.
Per learner, excluding VAT, and it comes down again as the numbers go up. The price shown is for one person and already has a course taken off it. Send us the seat numbers and you will get a quote you can pay online.
It is self paced. Learners work through the courses in any order, stop and pick up where they left off, and each one issues its own certificate on a pass.
For awareness it usually is. Where a duty needs a competent person, a written risk assessment, a documented system or practical sign off, training alone will not close it. If you are not sure which side of that line you are on, ask before buying.
Next step
Send us how many people need this bundle and we will come back with a quote you can pay online. If you want courses swapped in or out, say which and we will price that instead.
