Mandatory Training Programme:

There is a 62% turnover of care staff in private sector Nursing and Residential homes which can result in high costs for Mandatory Training. 

Bliss College’s special ‘Mandatory Training Programme’ will be held on a continual basis at our  Ilford training centre. Sessions on all six units i.e. 

Moving & Handling - Health & Safety - Basic Food & Hygiene - First Aid / CPR - Infection Control - POVA

Will be held weekly. Participating homes will be able to send their staff to any of the sessions for which their staff requires training. 

The advantages of the ‘Mandatory Training Programme’ are that it is potentially much more cost effective than the traditional methods of training these units. Secondly, and equally important, it will result in flexibility in managing your staff off duty as it enables training to be spread out allowing staff to be trained when it is convenient to you. Finally, existing and new staff can attend with no limit to numbers.

The cost of the ‘Mandatory Training Programme’ is an annual fee of £469+ VAT per home. The only requirements are that we are provided with a current list of staff and details of any new staff joining which will enable us to ensure that we provide you with a training dates and details of staff who will be attending for training. 

In addition to the Mandatory Training Programme’ we will continue to provide training in Managing Dementia, Managing Violence & Aggression, Safe Record Keeping, Safe Administration of Medication and Train the Trainers.
