Are you an individual employer involved in delegated healthcare activities? Join our network to share your experiences and learn from others.
A delegated healthcare activity is an activity that a regulated healthcare professional, such as a nurse, nursing associate, occupational therapist or speech and language therapist, delegates to a care worker or personal assistant. This might be for things like supporting skin integrity, managing diabetes, catheter care, or mental health crisis planning.
Skills for Care, in collaboration with the Department of Health and Social Care and partners, has developed guiding principles to ensure safe, effective, and person-centred delegation of healthcare activities. We’re now looking to expand this work with a dedicated network of individual employers who have lived experience in this area.
The network will meet monthly to share insights, support one another, and create valuable resources tailored to individual employers and personal assistants. If you're passionate about making a difference and would like to join us, please get in touch!
