Description

Lyme disease - also known as Lyme borreliosis - is a bacterial infection which can be passed to humans by the bite of an infected tick.

Early symptoms include skin rashes and/or flu-like symptoms, but the disease can affect multiple systems in the body, including the skin, joints, nervous system, eyes and heart.

If you’re unlucky enough to contract Lyme disease, early diagnosis and adequate antibiotic treatment are very important. Most people go on to make a full recovery. But if left untreated - or if treatment is unsuccessful

- Lyme disease can cause serious long-term health problems.

The good news is that Lyme disease is preventable.

Lyme Disease Awareness covers key topics including:

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
