Courses are designed to help those who are NEW TO CARE AS A CAREER – We give comprehensive training with modules geared towards achieving The Care Certificate. As a key partner with “Skillsforcare”, we work together to create vocational qualifications that reflect the various roles in the care sector. Together we help identify and build qualifications that meets with your needs.
Our Care Certificate training course takes place at our dedicated training centre and is led by one of our qualified trainers. As well as classroom modules, learning also takes place via practical exercises and assessments of competence in the workplace.
Our Care Certificate course normally runs Monday to Friday and includes the following modules:
Everyone receiving any sort of state funded care in England and Wales is entitled to Direct Payments. This is when the Local Authority or Trust pays any funding entitlement directly into yours or an advocate’s bank account so you can spend the money where ever you like, if it is for care.You can read more about care funding here.
Many Local Authorities have implemented a new contract which limits the choice of care companies to just two per client, while this is a good way of saving money for the councils it does limit the choice of the client to predominantly large national companies as opposed to smaller local organizations.
At LiiCares we offer a service that enables you to choose us and also make your life easier in the process. Our Managed Direct Payment Services aim to make life easier for you and give you more say and flexibility when it comes to your care.
