TOPSS induction standards
 
The TOPSS Induction Standards set out the minimum understanding that staff, new to care, need to have before starting work.
This will ensure that they work safely and confidently and by doing so contribute to assuring
the quality level of the care being delivered.
The programme also provides the first step on a career ladder and an introduction to life-long learning
 
 

Manual handling
 
This will never replace a hands on taught manualsession but it is quite useful as a point of reference. You can of course repeat the copurse until you get it all right so you will have learned something along the way.

The virtual body

This is an interesting little program which demonstrates the workings of the body's main systems.

Make a cup of coffee, sit back and enjoy the film.

 


Guide to legislation.
 
This is a document I put together listing most of the legislation you will need to know about as a carer 
 
 
If you need more there is a legislation page under unit specific links.

 

   

First Steps Workbook.

   

This is a workbook based on the TOPSS common induction standards and so is similar to the download opposite. Its just a bit easier to understand and use.


 Infection control powerpoint presentation

 
 
You have all heard of standard precautions. Well here is a Presentation to clarify the whole thing.
You could get a group of colleagues together and present this to each other to see whose the best.
