Information for individuals who want to
do e-learning on their own
|
| |
|
If you are worried about waiting any longer for in-depth
training on the Mental Capacity Act, which is now fully in force, I can offer
you my e-learning program on CD for individual use, for £50 +
VAT.
|
| |
|
Going up this particular learning curve should be seen as taking personal
responsibility for your own continuing professional development, which can only
be good for your career or your situation.
|
| |
|
The package comes with different layers for additional learning, for different
types of staff and professionals, after you’ve first gone through the course.
So it’s more like a lively online book than simply an assessment tool.
|
| |
|
It contains modules on all of the following:
|
|
Introduction to Capacity
A gentle start for those who have never needed to consider the significance of
capacity before, for their work.
|
|
Identifying Incapacity
Including sections on the 4 building blocks to capacitated decision making.
Who’s going to be making the decision?
|
|
Best interests Decision Making
Including sections on the IMCA service
Spending others’ money
The impact of Advance Decisions
Disputes with other people
Restraint vs Deprivation of Liberty
|
|
Other safeguarding alternatives to going to Court
An introduction to all the other legal things that can be done to safeguard
adults
|
|
There are two photo-book stories running through the package: one involving an
older person with dementia and depression and a warring family; and the other
involving a young person with moderate learning disabilities living in the
community and facing risk, there.
|
|
The package is in use in 25 authorities in the country already, so don't buy
it, if one of those is yours!
|
|
I promise I will return your money, if your authority or organisation buys the
package before the end of 2007, so you have nothing to lose.
