Overview

Domiciliary care staff play a vital role in caring for people at home towards the end of their life, and providing them with appropriate training is vital for all concerned, especially at this time. An ageing population and rising numbers of people with frailty and dementia means that carers now support people with far more complex conditions and the challenges are increasing all the time. Failure to provide good home care at the end of life is not acceptable - it causes untold distress to users and their families and leads to inappropriate expensive admissions to hospital.

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.
