Health Care & Psychology Diploma Level 3

Course Description 

The Health Care Diploma has been created to give an opportunity for those working in a Care environment to build on their skills in order that they can progress in Health and Social Care.

Working in the care sector, you have responsibilities to provide a valuable service to your clients and to respond safely and efficiently to their needs. This course will help you to develop the skills needed to do this and gain a qualification that recognises your achievement.

This Health Care Diploma is concerned with your role, as a care worker, in identifying ways of communicating on difficult, complex and sensitive issues, in a variety of situations. You will also explore ways the care worker can support others to communicate and update records and reports.

If you have ever wondered why people may do the things they do, then the Psychology Diploma is for you! Psychology is the study of mind and behaviour and so in this distance learning course you will discover how psychologists have come a long way in understanding human behaviour and the mental processes that underlie actions we carry out.

The Psychology Diploma has been written by Dr Matthew Smith and Elizabeth Ottley. Matthew Smith is a former Associate Professor of Psychology at Liverpool Hope University with nearly 20 years’ experience of teaching and research in Psychology. His work in the media even included a stint as the resident psychologist/parapsychologist on the television show Most Haunted.

Please note that you will be required to carry out additional research in order to receive the Diploma upon completion.  This aspect has been included in order to improve the student’s research skills.
