About the Event:
Please note this course has not been designed for health/social care staff. Places are limited and free places are only being offered to families or informal carers that are non health/social care professionals. If you are (also) a health or social care professional- please speak to your employer to request Care Act training or view our range of courses designed for professionals.
We are hosting a new free course for families and informal carers. This 3-hour training session gives family members, friends and those involved in supporting loved ones information on the Care Act 2014. The Care Act is primary legislation and provides the legal framework underpinning care and support for people aged 18 years and over. The course will be run by our trainer Sara-Jayne Williams
The course will cover:
1. What is the Care Act 2014?
2. General duties, including advocacy and accessible information & advice
3. The care and support journey (assessment, care and support planning and review)
4. Meeting eligible need
6. Financial assessments - paying for care
7. Adults at risk - safeguarding
The group size will be limited so that those attending can ask questions about their own circumstances in an informal setting and in confidence (Edge sessions are not recorded).
