What is NVQs in Nursing and Residential Care Homes about?
<p>People living in nursing and residential care homes are vulnerable to the effects of poor quality care. They rely on staff to assist them with the activities of daily living, to help them manage long term conditions and to support them in leading fulfilling lives. Care home staff need to be caring, compassionate and educated. Government now state that at least 50% of care assistants working in care homes must have a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) in health and social care at level two or above.</p> <p>This third edition of NVQs in Nursing and Residential Care Homes is fully updated and tailored to the new NVQ syllabus. It is written specifically for care assistants working in care homes who are studying for NVQ level two in health and social care and also provides a solid foundation for higher levels. Care assistants working with the older person in home care, intermediate care and hospital settings will also find this book helpful. It contains accessible and practical information to enable care assistants to provide sensitive, high quality care to the older person.</p>
