Developing health and clinical skills

Opportunities now exist for social care professionals to develop clinical skills and to work as part of the wider health and social care team as an assistant practitioner in a range of settings. They will have direct contact with patients, service users or clients providing high quality and compassionate care.

Assistant Practitioners work at a level above that of Healthcare Support Workers and gain a more in-depth understanding about factors that influence health and ill-health. This training is available via a variety of routes including an apprenticeship at Level 5.
