The programme covers relevant legislation\, including the Mental Capacity Act 2005\, ensuring learners understand their legal responsibilities when supporting individuals with changing needs. \nLearners will explore practical approaches that promote independence\, inclusion\, and quality of life. The course demonstrates how small environmental adaptations can significantly improve accessibility for people experiencing sensory loss\, and how communication and care approaches can be adapted to provide more effective\, person-centred support. \nThe training also examines the impact of sensory changes in individuals living with advanced dementia\, developing condition-specific understanding of how brain changes can distort sensory input and influence behaviour in care settings. \nBy the end of the course\, care workers will feel confident in using tailored interventions and practical strategies to support individuals with dementia and sensory difficulties\, enabling safer\, more compassionate\, and more responsive care. \nThis course is aligned with the Workforce Development Pathway under:\n• Care or Support Worker – Established in their role with consolidated skills and experience\n• Enhanced Care Worker – Delegated healthcare activities and/or condition-specific support \nEntry Requirements\nThis course is designed for health and social care staff who work with individuals experiencing sensory loss or dementia. No formal qualifications are required\, although some experience in a care setting is helpful. Learners should have basic English and communication skills to access the course materials and take part in discussions. A willingness to engage in activities and share experiences is important to get the most from the training. \nLearning objectives: \n• Identify the key sensory processing systems and understand their role in everyday functioning.\n• Describe the main types of sensory loss and how they may present in individuals.\n• Identify common causes of sensory loss.\n• Explain the potential impact of sensory loss on communication\, behaviour\, independence\, and overall wellbeing.\n• Summarise practical strategies for planning and delivering person-centred support for individuals with sensory needs.\n• Explain how the Mental Capacity Act 2005 supports and protects individuals experiencing sensory loss.\n• Describe the Hertfordshire Sensory Framework and its relevance to professional practice.\n• Identify appropriate sources of support\, services\, and guidance available to individuals and care professionals \n*Please note: As per our T&C’s\, this course carries a fee in the event of non-attendance\, non-completion or late cancellation.\nBookings of more than two delegates per site may be amended to allow access to all member organisations at the discretion of HCPA.\nDelegates who are late may not be admitted into the training and a cost incurred.

Benefits may include improved communication and wellbeing\, reduced anxiety and depression\, increased self-esteem\, cognitive stimulation\, opportunities for reminiscence\, emotional expression\, and connection to cultural identity. \nThe course is co-delivered by HCPA and a Music 24 music therapist. Delegates will gain an in-depth understanding of social care best practice alongside expert advice and demonstrations from a highly experienced music therapist. \nOver three days\, delegates will learn to create personalised music experiences for people living with dementia\, taking into account their musical preferences\, histories\, and cultural backgrounds.

This will assess a live music session and review the delegates action plan. This stage also provides further feedback and is when the service can receive formal recognition. Following the course\, Champions will benefit from a monthly support network that promotes collaboration and continuous improvement in dementia care. They will also gain access to a growing library of therapeutic music resources to enhance their practice. \nEquipment – A musical starter pack will be created for each home to allow sessions to start without any delays.

SUMMARY:Reflective practice for Mental Health service providers
DESCRIPTION:Course fee: HCPA Full Member: Fully funded*\nAssociate Member: £25+VAT | ACE Member: £33+VAT | Non-member: £50+VAT \nHalf day course via Zoom \nThis half-day session is delivered live by our expert trainer in an interactive virtual environment\, meaning there are no hidden travel costs and fits easier into busy schedules. Sessions are designed so that participants can interact with the trainer and other learners to quickly gain actionable skills\, knowledge and behaviours\, helping them implement these swiftly.\n\nThis course is suitable for all Mental Health services\, with an emphasis on accommodation-based services.\nIt is best suited to managers and seniors who are able to implement new practice. \nExperience is one element of learning\, however on its own is not enough. Although reflective practice is a tool largely used within health and social care to reflect on one’s own actions to take a critical stance (not judgemental) towards one’s own practice and includes that of our peers in a process of continuous adaptation and learning\, it is transferable to any organisation. \nThis course will focus on the Gibbs cycle of reflective practice\, as its cyclical nature lends itself well for continual learning. The course will look in more detail at reflection on action and reflection in action\, which will assist professionals to identify their strengths\, weaknesses and gaps in their skills\, training\, and knowledge. \nThe course will promote reflective practice and its benefits when adopted within organisations as a learning tool to facilitate continual improvements in practice standards. Furthermore\, it will support providers to consider how they can use this tool in a way that makes sense to their organisation. \nLearning objectives:\n• Understand what reflective practice is.\n• Understand the benefits of reflective practice.\n• Know there are two types of reflection\, reflection on action and reflection in action.\n• Understand the Gibbs cycle of reflection and examples of questions practitioners can use to gain new learning.\n• Learners will have an opportunity to use reflective practices in small groups within breakout rooms and feedback.\n• Providers will have an opportunity to consider different types of reflective practice and how they might adopt it within their organisation.\n• Understand how reflective practice can be used to evidence KLI’s/PAMMS/CL’s.\n• Providers will have an opportunity to discuss and identify together how their organisation can adopt reflective practice. \n\n*Please note: As per our T&C’s\, this course carries a fee in the event of non-attendance\, non-completion or late cancellation.\nBookings of more than two delegates per site may be amended to allow access to all member organisations at the discretion of HCPA.\nDelegates who are late may not be admitted into the training and a cost incurred
