Along with NHS staff, we provide support to staff working in social care organisations to help them deliver research to improve treatments and care for service users, as well as improve environments for those working in the field.
Introduction to Research in Social Care Settings
Introduction to Research in Social Care Settings
We are offering a course for adult social care and social work practitioners who are new to research. This course will support you if you would like to understand why research is important, the legislation and frameworks surrounding research and also who is involved in research in adult social care settings.
The live interactive module will bring the theory and practice together and help you to understand the practicalities of delivering research in adult social care settings. It is estimated that it would take 90 minutes to complete the online part and then 90 minutes of a Zoom live session on top.
