Log on to Care - case studies 

 

What do the organisations involved with Log on to Care say?

 

Carewatch Mid Bucks

"We as a company have been involved with the LOTC project since 2005. I have used many of the modules and have always had very positive feedback from the care workers. The sharing of the laptops always encourages interaction and promotes effective learning. I incorporate the POVA and Medication modules within the Common Induction Standards period, and we remain committed to this blended E learning approach. The latest module (Equal Opportunities and Diversity) is one of the most comprehensive to date and promotes lively discussion."
- Caroline Post: Training Co-ordinator - Carewatch Mid Bucks

“I have never done this type of training (E learning) before but it really suited me”
- Laura (Care Co-ordinator)

“The diversity training was very interesting and it was great to work at your own pace”
- Nikki (Care Co-ordinator)

Quotes from other Carers

  • "I was really worried about using the computer but came away with improved skills"
  • "Really liked this type of learning; the case studies are useful and the quiz shows you how much you have remembered or understood!"

Reach Disability Care

"The course is extremely interactive and, with participants working in pairs, it always generates lots of discussion, particularly when deciding on the test answers."

"Reach has used the Medication module of the Log On To Care scheme extensively to train all levels of staff, as part of induction or as a refresher. The course is extremely interactive and, with participants working in pairs, it always generates lots of discussion, particularly when deciding on the test answers. The training experience has always been well received and participants regularly recognise that the course improves their IT skills as well. Trainees appreciate receiving their own copy of the material"
- Gary Knight: Manager at REACH

Quotes from Carers

  • "I have really enjoyed the training and have completed 3 of the sessions. I found the Dementia and POVA ones very useful, especially as a way of refreshing my knowledge.
