The impact of Stroke is immense and our course is designed to give Health and Social Care Staff, Stroke Patients and Carers an awareness of the journey that may be taken by someone affected by Stroke.

This includes an understanding of the causes and effects of a Stroke, the treatment and prevention of Stroke and the long term care support and re-integration into community life.

Our course contains interactive interviews with Stroke survivors and professionals plus quizzes to further engage learners. As with all our courses, it can be customised for each individual authority.

Personal Assistant Induction e-learning is a companion course to our Self-Directed Support e-learning, Direct Payments e-learning and Enablement e-learning courses.

The programme was commissioned by Skills for Care (Surrey and Suffolk), East and West Sussex, Brighton and Hove, Barnsley, Gloucestershire, Kent, Somerset and Wiltshire Councils. This means that we have had a wealth of feedback to help us develop a high quality programme.

The Personal Assistant Induction e-learning course includes interviews with Employers and their PAs to highlight important issues arising in their relationships, along with quizzes to further engage learners. Naturally, the course can be made available to Employers and their Personal Assistants.

The Transformation Agenda in Adult Social Care aims to put people first through a radical reform of public services.  It will mean that people are able to live their own lives and promote their own individual needs for independence, well-being, and dignity.
