Dementia Care VRQ

Dementia Care VRQ
This fully recognised qualification is designed to provide the learner with the essential knowledge required to enable them to offer the best professional approach to caring for people with dementia. This Vocationally Related Qualification (VRQ) explains important facts about dementia and shows learners how they can integrate key ingredients of person-centred care, in order to improve the daily life of people with dementia. It explains how to provide excellent quality care to dementia clients and will benefit those working in the care environment, such as nurses, residential care or domiciliary workers and particularly individuals who are supporting people with dementia on a daily basis. These materials will enable learners to understand dementia (and the practical help that is available for those clients) and ultimately teach them how to care for people who have dementia. On completion of this qualification you will understand that person-centred dementia care involves examining and exploring the feelings and emotions which are caused by the experience of a dementia. It also requires you as a care worker to put yourself in the shoes of a family member and to appreciate their feelings. Person-centred care also looks at the feelings that being close to individuals with a dementia can create in you as a care worker. Person-centred care comes from the heart, it is not something you just learn, but something you need to feel. VRQs are nationally recognised qualifications which are based on the national framework of qualifications (NQF) at all levels. Like NVQs they cover the functions of managing activities, people, resources, information, energy and quality. The ASET Level 2 Certificate in Dementia Care is well suited to support progression to a full range of NVQs or other work-based qualifications. Our aim is to provide you with the best deal available, therefore registration fee, certification fee and full tutor support is included in the course price for you.
