OCR – NVQ Level 4 in Health and Social Care (Adults Pathway )

The OCR Level 4 NVQ in Health and Social Care (Adults) is designed to reflect the work of candidates who undertake Health and Social Care activities at Level 4 working with service users/carers. The aim of this qualification is to recognise the skills and competencies of candidates in the workplace.
The qualification is about the management and delivery of physical, emotional or enabling care to clients/service users. The candidate will be managing and delivering care in support of others, and will be accountable in the area of practice.
Candidates will be working without direct supervision or on their own, such as in a clients/service users own home.
Candidates will have autonomy, and will be required to
make decisions within boundaries and limits agreed with their team.
This NVQ will allow for progression to and from OCR’s existing portfolio of Health and Social Care qualifications and will complement other vocational qualifications.
