Why Continuous Education is Important for Care Workers

The health and social care industry is an ever-evolving field, constantly impacted by new discoveries and innovations in science and technology. It is care workers’ responsibility (and is in some cases mandatory) to keep themselves up to date with legal requirements and best practice, as well as changes in the landscape they are working in.

There is therefore always the need to keep knowledge and skills up to date. This is where continuous learning comes in.

Continuous learning in health care is important because:

• It keeps your skills and knowledge updated

  There will always be new techniques to learn and new technologies to discover.

  The techniques you are routinely using today could be replaced with a more efficient practice tomorrow. That’s why it is important to constantly ensure your skills and knowledge are updated.

• It keeps the people in your care safe and well cared for

  Being knowledgeable about advances in your field is the best way to ensure that you are taking great care of every patient and client assigned to you. It tells you which policies and practices are outdated and refreshes your knowledge of newer and safer techniques. It also gives you the chance to make an even bigger impact in the way certain patients’ conditions improve under your care.

How many modules are in the Care Certificate?

Care worker training for the Care Certificate has 15 standards that health and social care workers must follow throughout their careers, from beginning to end. Each of the standards must be completed if you want to receive your Certificate and begin your career in the industry.

Importance of Health & Safety Training

Health and Safety is one of the 15 standards that make up the Care Certificate for staff working in health and social care. While health and safety is an important issue in any workplace, it is perhaps most essential for those working in a health care environment. A critical part of any health training programme is making staff aware that safety is everyone’s responsibility.

This standard outlines in more detail the key responsibilities for healthcare assistants and assistant practitioners have for ensuring the workplace is a safe place for them and their clients. It outlines what the employer needs to do and what falls within the employees’  remits. By the end of the module, which takes around 30 to 45 minutes to complete, the student will understand the health and safety policies and procedures that are in place and what employees’ legal and moral obligations are in order to promote safe working.

Benefits of e-Learning in HealthCare

Many areas of training in the health and social care professions are mandatory to ensure staff are aware of their legal responsibilities and are equipped with the knowledge they need to carry out their roles effectively and efficiently. Can such a care training programme be successfully delivered online, though? While there are some drawbacks, overall, the availability of training online is valuable for two main reasons:

• Flexibility: online training such as medication training for care homes can be made available to everyone and can be carried out at a time that suits the individual. Face-to-face training sessions are more restrictive in this respect – staff might have conflicting appointments, be off sick or on leave, for instance, which can leave them struggling to complete mandatory training.
• Cost efficiency: online care training courses can be rolled out and delivered to more people for less money than face to face training sessions which incur all manner of costs, from room hire to booking a trainer and travel and subsistence costs for employees.

The Importance of Continuous Education in HealthCare

The benefits of investing in continuous health care training programme are self-evident: better-educated employees, higher staff retention rates, a good reputation, increased financial performance, and better patient outcomes.

The downsides of not promoting an environment in which continuous education is valued are self-evident: medical organisations risk losing their staff to alternate employers if they don’t invest in their people. Losing out on important knowledge may result in inefficient system usage and dissatisfied patients, which can lead to increased costs, time waste, and a tarnished reputation.
