This comprehensive course covers 15 Care Induction standards and includes theory-based knowledge, downloadable workbooks, holistic assessment sheets, and workplace competency record sheets.
Our training is mapped to the official Care Certificate Standards. These standards were introduced in 2015 by Skills for Care, Health Education England, and Skills for Health to ensure that all health and social care professionals have the foundational skills to provide safe, high-quality care.
In addition to the core Care Certificate modules, we offer a Medication Awareness module to build a solid understanding of medication management. For competency in administering medication, we recommend enrolling in our Medication Administration course.
