Telecare Assessment and Problem Solving
DLF Training is CPD-accredited by the CPD Certification Service.
The aim of this telecare training course is to increase knowledge and understanding of telecare technology and its application across a range of client groups. It will use case studies to consider the technology, assessment, funding and ethical considerations of telecare. At the end of the day participants will understand the policy context and the drivers, be aware of the evidence base and sources of reference with regards to telecare. They will also be more aware of the key elements of service user assessment, and identify a range of telecare solutions to meet the assessed needs.
The course will include hands-on, practical training using the equipment found in the DLF’s SmartHome. Laid out like an everyday home, the DLF’s SmartHome combines existing mobility equipment with the latest in telecare.
