Delivered by a qualified IMCA, our Mental Capacity Act Training offers all you need to make sure your staff understand their responsibilities when it comes to the Mental Capacity Act.
Mental Capacity Act Power Hour
Find out what the Mental Capacity Act is, explore the Five Principles and what they mean in your organisation.
Level 1- Mental Capacity Awareness for Frontline Staff
Building on the Power Hour, we'll explore the legislation around the Mental Capacity Act, we'll look at the Five Principles in more detail. We'll also cover mental capacity assessments, and some practical hands on experience on how these work. We'll touch on best interests and other related legislation.
Level 2- Mental Capacity Skills for Managers
This one day course includes everything we cover in Awareness but goes further to upskill managers in completion of Mental Capacity Assessments and making Best Interest Decisions.
We offer three power hours to help your teams understand neurodivergence: Neurodiversity, Autism and ADHD
Top takeaways for Neurodiversity will include the difference between neurodiversity and neurodivergence, key neurodivergent conditions and ways to be more inclusive.
For our Autism power hour we'll be covering a lot around language and environment.
In our ADHD power hour we'll be dispelling some myths and stigma around ADHD and building awareness on the condition.
This course is about building your team's awareness of different neurodevelopmental conditions that you might encounter with the people you work with.
“Neurodiversity is a natural and valuable form of human diversity." Quote from National Symposium on Neurodiversity.
Explore how autism, dyslexia, ADHD, dyspraxia and sensory processing disorder, to name a few, affect children, young people and adults, and explore steps you can take to make your services and environments neurodivergent friendly.
Understand the difference between neurodiversity and neurodivergence and when each one should be used.
This course can be tailored to the services you offer; whether education, community based, social care, health or something else.
Our one day course helps managers, team leaders and supervisors to really explore how neurodivergence affects the teams they manage, and how they can create workplaces where neurodiverse teams can thrive.
We'll explore different conditions, how they might present, the challenges this might bring for managers, and how managers can sensitively and proactively explore actions they can take to support their neurodivergent team members.
We'll explore what reasonable adjustments are out there already such as Access to Work, and simple changes Managers can make to reduce difficulties for people in their teams.
We'll also think about how managers can become leaders in reducing stigma and promote a positive neurodiverse culture that makes the organisation a great place to work for everyone.
This half day course will explore some of the reasons people may be challenging in phone calls, and in person, alongside a range of techniques that people can use to manage these challenging conversations.
Part of this training will be some skills practice in these techniques so people can feel more confident in using them.
This is a very practical course that asks teams to really explore how they can make changes to reduce behaviour that challenges as well as build confidence in being able to set strong boundaries around behaviour that challenges.
This half day course will look at case recording, and the different elements that make up a good case record.
We will consider defensible documentation that stands up under scrutiny, alongside the importance of keeping objective, non -judgemental records about clients, and by the end of the course your teams will be able to understand why it is important to keep detailed case notes, and have some ideas on how to improve their case recording.
Being a Manager can be stressful at times, with lots of busy responsibilities and requirements.
Often Manager are promoted because they are good at their jobs, but the human skills around good people interaction need a bit of development.
One of the key places to build good staff relationships is from within the supervision meeting.
On this half day course for Managers, Team Leaders and supervisors we will explore what a good supervision should look like, how to build rapport and understanding with your team members, and how to have difficult, but supportive, conversations with your employees.
