Description
Observation, Analytical skills with Reflective Practice & Recording Skills
Observation and recording are essential elements when working with children and their families. We understand that not all carers may enjoy keeping records, so we have created a specialised course emphasising the importance of observation in building relationships with young people.
Our course is tailored to care staff in various settings and aims to assist them in fulfilling their obligations and duties to observe and accurately record concerns. Monitoring and recording effectively are crucial in providing excellent service to those in your care.
Recording is a vital aspect of social care and is at the core of providing sound, person-centred support. Our course highlights the importance of observation in fulfilling your duty of care to safeguard young people.
We also cover the myths surrounding reflective practice in our comprehensive course. Critical reflection enables us to analyse what we have learned and how we have learned it, leading to clearer thinking and minimising emotional bias. Our Reflective Practice Improves Work Performance course delves into the theory of Reflective Practice to enhance personal development, caregiving, and organisational improvement. Aspiring person-centred practitioners looking to develop advanced skills can benefit significantly from this course.
