A mandatory six and a half day staff training programme has been devised in Staffordshire, to ensure personalisation of adult care becomes part of mainstream social services’ culture.
The Personalisation Training Programme has been designed to promote independence, choice and control for service users, and equips staff with the skills and knowledge needed to secure innovative options for care and support.
Front line social care staff, including colleagues from the health sector, are required to attend the training course, which covers:
- person centred thinking
- the Resource Allocation System (RAS)
- outcome based support planning
- person centred reviews
- direct payments
- support broker awareness
- key worker role awareness
A half day briefing session on the programme is delivered to all senior managers who are either directly or indirectly involved in the delivery of the personalisation agenda, or the assessment and care management of service users.
The briefing looks at the purpose and necessity of the training programme, the content of the workshops, the learning outcomes for staff, the expected outcomes for service users, and how it will inform personalisation.
