More about the modules
Safeguarding (Adult and Children)
Safeguarding is the process of working to protect individuals from harm such as abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
Equality and Diversity
Equality and diversity are all about treating people fairly and with respect, no matter what their differences may be. We will look at how to promote equal opportunities and recognise the value of diversity.
Boundaries and Confidentiality
Boundaries set the limits of what is and is not acceptable and help to protect ourselves and service users by clarifying what types of behaviour and language will or will not be tolerated. Confidentiality involves protecting and actively promoting the dignity and privacy of service users.
Communication Skills
The ability to communicate effectively is essential, no matter where you volunteer, it sounds like it should be instinctive but often when we say one thing it can be misinterpreted leading to misunderstandings and frustration.
PLEASE ONLY REGISTER IF YOU ARE SURE TO ATTEND.
This training is free to join but there is a cost for us to deliver.
