Improve your skills in looking after elderly people with our Home Care Training Programme. This programme is for workers who want to be better at caring for older people. This training covers important things like finding out what the older person needs, getting the family involved, and talking well with people who have dementia. You will learn how to give medicines, plan good food, and make sure the house is safe for the elderly. You will also learn about dementia and arthritis, how to plan the older person's day, and how to help the people who are caring for them. All of these lessons are easy to understand and you can learn them at your own pace.
