Module 1 :Duty of Care
There is a lot to think about when someone works in healthcare. It’s their responsibility to make sure everyone in their care is safe, whatever happens. So, as well as carrying out the technical parts of their job, they need to be able to make decisions quickly and problem-solve. For example, if they have a patient who won’t take their medication. What do they do? The decision your healthcare staff make in this situation is part of their duty of care to that person. Duty of care is one of their legal and professional responsibilities when they work in a healthcare setting.
Topic's covered :Everyone needs a little privacy. Protecting what’s unique and personal to you is a basic human right. But, if you end up in a situation where you need to be cared for by another person, this right can be compromised.
Topic's covered :Data is everywhere. From companies storing our payment or address data, to the information we post on social media, huge amounts of our lives are on record. And while that’s useful, it all needs handling in the correct way to protect our privacy.
Topic's covered :No-one likes getting sick. You get that icky, not-right feeling, and you know you could be in for a few days shivering in bed, needing endless supplies of tissues and cough medicine. You wouldn’t wish it on anyone, and you’d likely tell people to stay away so they didn’t catch your bug.
Topic's covered :Sometimes it’s easy to forget about the mental health and well-being of people you’re caring for. But 1 in 4 adults will experience at least one mental health need in their lifetime, and those responsible for patient care in any healthcare setting should be aware of these conditions.
