Managing and Safe Handling of Medicines VRQ
Managing and Safe Handling of Medicines VRQ
Are you working or wish to work in a health and social care environment? This fully recognised qualification is suitable for all care workers employed within any area of this sector. This Vocationally Related Qualification (VRQ) home study programme aims to provide the carer with a thorough understanding of the principles and practices of working with medicines. On completion of the qualification an individual will be familiar with the correct procedures for handling, administering and disposing of medicines. The VRQ also covers the different categories and types of medicines as well as the benefits and risks associated with different types of medicines. The ASET Level 2 Certificate in Managing and Safe Handling of Medicines provides all staff, supervisors and managers with the essential knowledge needed to offer the very best professional approach to the managing and safe handling of medicines. VRQs are nationally recognised qualifications which are based on the national framework of qualifications at all levels. Like NVQs they cover the functions of managing activities, people, resources, information, energy and quality. 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.
Introductory Offer of £274.95 for a limited time only! (Standard price £350)
The assessor/tutor will support the learner throughout the duration of the course. The learner will complete activities and an assignment in order to successfully complete the course.    You will receive the course manual, assignments and study guide plus tutor support. Our student support team are also available for any other queries that you may have whilst completing your course. You can be assured that unlimited support is available for your course, so there is no need to struggle or feel isolated during your studies. 
The ASET Level 2 Certificate in Managing and Safe Handling of Medicines has two modes of assessment.  Unit 1 is assessed by an ASET set and marked assignment, which will be set on regular occasions during each year.  Units 2 and 3 are assessed by internally set and marked assignments, moderated by ASET.  These units are achieved by completing all of the activities and self-assessment questions relevant to these 2 units in the activities section of the programme.
ASET is a national Awarding Body recognised by the Department for Education and Skills and by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority in Britain. It has been accrediting vocational learning for more than 50 years and now works with more than 200 providers in the UK and internationally.
