HEALTH & SOCIAL CARE

A career in health and social care is challenging and demanding, but ultimately highly rewarding.

A qualification in health and social care will develop skills in a wide range of areas relevant to your job role, whether you work in hospitals, health centres, educational and community centres, residential homes, advice centres or in people's own homes, including getting to know individuals, building trust, supporting specific needs, assisting with personal care and general domestic tasks. Achieving a qualification in health and social care will enable you to gain recognition and pursue a fulfilling career.

Entry Requirements

Although there are no formal requirements for entry to an NVQ or Apprenticeship programme, in order to succeed and get the most out of the programme, you need to be enthusiastic, committed and hardworking.

Length of Programme

There is no set timescale for our programmes as it depends on the individual make-up of your qualification (unit selection), the support of your employer and your ability; however, the majority of JHP Care learners complete their programme within 12 months.
