Induction

All staff will be expected to complete an induction, this may be a full induction which includes the following:

• UNDERSTANDING THE PRINCIPLES OF CARE
• UNDERSTANDING THE ORGANISATION AND THE ROLE OF THE WORKER
• MAINTAINING SAFETY AT WORK
• COMMUNICATING EFFECTIVELY
• RECOGNISING AND RESPONDING TO ABUSE AND NEGLECT
• DEVELOPING AS A WORKER
• SHADOWING ANOTHER CARER

Usually those new to care will need to complete all of the above.  For those members of staff experience in Care Practice you probably will have completed this mandatory training or something very similar.
