Course Aims
Further to completion of the Care Certificate course, this course is designed to support health and social care workers, who are new to supporting autistic individuals, with an introduction and understanding of Autism and their responsibilities relating to this.
The course begins by explaining what autism is. It then sets out how to support autistic individuals by relating the theory of the relevant care certificate standards to working practice. For example, ‘communication’ discusses the barriers to communication that autistic individuals may face, ‘work in a person-centred way’ looks at the impact of sensory experiences: sensitivity to light, touch, sounds, taste, smells, colours/patterns, temperature and ‘fluids and nutrition’ explores specific routines associated with eating and drinking.
In module 2, the final stage of the course, we look at scenarios and strategies that will strengthen knowledge through examples of experience. The scenarios support each standard relevant to caring for autistic individuals.
Guided Learning Hours: up to 30 minutes, dependent on learner’s skills and abilities.
