Course Description
The Therapeutic Activities programme will help you to become more effective in many areas of your work and will help staff to gain a better understanding of what activity provision is and how simple everyday activities can be therapeutic and have an impact on our mental health. The relationship between engagement in everyday activity and well being will be explored. Learners will be guided through supporting the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of activities, including the skills and knowledge required to provide an inclusive and person centred service.
This distance learning programme has been written for people who are involved in the care sector and is aimed to give all staff, supervisors and managers the essential knowledge needed to offer the very best professional approach to supporting activity provision in the care setting.
The programme is divided into five core modules, each concentrating on an important aspect of supporting therapeutic activity provision in a care setting.
