Level 3 Diploma in Healthcare Support
at Vocational Training Services Care Sector Limited, Westcliff-On-Sea · training provider
What the college says
Healthcare workers operate in a variety of settings and work as part of a team to provide high quality, compassionate care to individuals. Duties can involve clinical activities, such as checking blood pressure or temperature, and also other activities such as helping patients to wash & dress. If you are currently working in a healthcare role and you are interested in undertaking a work based qualification, you’ll want to explore your options. The government provides funding for apprenticeships, but if this route is not for you, rest assured you can still obtain a nationally recognised, industry approved qualification with VTS. In fact there are some benefits to studying a ‘stand-alone’ qualification.
