Managing Induction Process for Health and Social Care or Children and Young People’s Settings
Unit 523 Managing induction process for health and social care or children and young people’s settings. 01.1 purpose of induction
Induction is the first piece of learning a worker undertakes when joining the social care sector or a new organisation. These Common Induction Standards (CIS) have been designed to provide a structured start for workers in the first 12 weeks of employment, which will help ensure that they are then safe to leave alone with responsibility for the people they support. But when workers are expected to perform any tasks that are not covered by the CIS, appropriate training must be provided before the work is undertaken. There are eight standards that the induction should cover these are. Standard 1 Role of the health and social care worker
Standard 2 Personal developments
Standard 3 Communicate effectively
Standard 4 Equality and Inclusion
Standard 5 Principles for implementing duty of care
Standard 6 Principles of safeguarding in health and social care Standard 7 Person-centred support
Standard 8 Health and safety in an adult social care setting. Each standard contains a number of ‘main areas’ of knowledge that a person needs to know about before they can work safely without close supervision. Each ‘main area’ is made up of ‘outcomes’, which say what exactly you need to know about that area. The main areas that should be covered as a minimum are: * The aims, objectives and the purpose of the service * Information on the people who the person will be caring for and supporting Providing any specific communication needs or physical needs. * A list of the rights of the people who use the service. * The policies and Procedures of the service. * Actions to be taken in the case of any emergency. * Health and Safety risk assessments as well as any other necessary health surveillance necessary for their work. * How to report adverse events, incidents errors and near misses, * The arrangements for the staff
