        What is the duty of care?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        The \u201cduty of care\u201d refers to the obligations placed on people to act towards others in a certain way, under specific standards. The term is sometimes used to cover both\u00a0legal\u00a0and\u00a0professional duties that health care practitioners may have towards others, but there are distinctions between the two.<\/p>\n

        Why is this online duty of care training course essential?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

        Your duty of care is also to other workers, for example, in a hospital, to doctors, nurses and healthcare support workers but also to caterers, cleaners and maintenance workers. If you are a home care worker, you will probably work alone in a variety of homes, but there may well be other people on the premises, as well as whoever you are there to support. Your duty of care is to each individual and to the other workers you come into contact within the community.<\/p>\n

        The duty of care is part of the code of conduct for healthcare support workers and adult social care workers in England and will most likely also be in your job description. It is essential that you have the knowledge and skills to act on your duty of care in your role but that you do not work beyond it.<\/p>\n
