Training & Development at alderwell care

At AlderWell Care, we know that great care starts with great carers. That’s why we are committed to providing high-quality training and continuous professional development for every member of our team.

We want our staff to feel confident, supported, and motivated to deliver the best possible care to the people we serve.

Every new team member completes a full induction programme before beginning their role. This includes:

• Safeguarding and protection of vulnerable adults
   
• Infection prevention and control
   
• Moving and handling techniques
   
• Medication awareness and safe administration
   
• First aid and basic life support

• Dementia care and Alzheimer’s support
   
• End-of-life (palliative) care
