£419.88


Level: ASET Level 4 Adv, Diploma

When it comes to caring at home, physical care is likely the type of care that comes to mind most readily. This involves helping people to attend to their personal needs, such as bathing and dressing, however psychological and social care are equally important.

In this course you will come to understand the many services which contribute to care at home, and how to choose the right ones for the job, especially as caring becomes more complex. The concepts of care and caring are developed throughout the course to enable you to take a broad view and keep an open mind about the individuality of people.
