Course Overview:
These 2011 qualifications are based on the National Occupational Standards for Health. They
contain some units in common with the Health and Social Care diplomas but offer a different
structure and specialist options. This supports career development and flexible working by crediting
units that have already been achieved in the Health and Social Care diplomas.

This qualification covers the knowledge and skills that learners will need in order to confirm
their competence when working in healthcare support non-clinical roles, in a variety of
health and social care settings.
