N.B This is not a complete list of training requirements.
Both CQC guidance and Skills for Care advice highlight the responsibility of the service provider and registered manager to continue to improve care standards through a well-trained workforce.
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the health and social care regulator for England. Their aim is to ensure better care for everyone in hospital, in a care home and at home. Training is a key component in ensuring standards of service are met and increasingly providers are required to provide evidence that health and social care training is not only being provided but that learners are achieving specific outcomes. Legislative requirements must be adhered to.
E-learning from embrace offers the most cost-efficient and effective way for health and social care services to meet their training requirements as required by the Care Quality Commission. Our e-learning not only provides a comprehensive suite of online courses, it provides evidence in readily available reports to answer any question relating to the Who? How? What? Where? and When? of any learning and development plan.
