Carers will learn how to put dignity issues at the centre of all their care activities, but the course will also appeal to other staff within a care environment and how they can use dignity to promote independence.

The good news is that no prior learning knowledge or experience is essential to take this course. This course is openly available to anyone wishing to learn more about dignity and respect and would like to take part in a highly rewarding home study course. You have the freedom to start the course at any time and continue your studies at your own pace for a period of up to 12 months from initial registration with full tutor support.
