Course summary

A Diploma in Health and Social Care is flexible to suit all fields of health and social care. Learners can select a pathway that suits their role - for example, working with people who have a learning disability, people with dementia or children and young people. These qualifications are designed to equip learners with the skills and knowledge needed to care for others in a broad range of health or social care settings. This is the main qualification required by the Quality Care Commission in England and the Care Councils in Wales and Northern Ireland.
