Care Essentials

The essential grounding for anyone starting out in care. This course walks you through what a carer actually does day to day — your role, how to keep people safe and treated with dignity, how to communicate well, and where the limits of your job are. It's plain, practical, and written for real shifts in real homes. Finish it and you'll have a solid base to build the rest of your learning on.
