Staff and Training

One of the fundamental principles that sets HomeCare (Mellor) apart from many other care providers is that we regard training as an on-going and continuous process that involves an extensive quality training programme.

We recognise the importance of rigorous training to the highest level for the well being and safety of our customers. It is vital in order to maintain our high standards of care and the effectiveness of the service.

We provide a comprehensive introduction to care within our induction training programme so that anyone joining the company, whether they have previous experience or not, has the skills and confidence to provide a high quality adaptable service to meet individuals needs.

We pride ourselves on an inclusive and flexible approach to all our training sessions and our commitment to designing training programmes to meet individual needs.

Training includes, but is not limited to, the following:
The Principles of Person Centered Care, The Role of the Care Worker, Communication, Health, Safety and Security, Administration of Medication, Moving & Handling, Protection of Vulnerable Adults, Basic First Aid, Infection Control and Incontinence, Care Code of Conduct, Equality and Diversity, Dementia and Alzheimers, Confidentiality, Customer Care, Nutrition and Well Being, The Rights of Clients, Common Induction Standards.

External training is also provided in order for all our staff to achieve a nationally recognised Vocational Qualification (NVQ).
