Health & Social Care QCF Level 2
Is it for me?

in a nursing/residential care home, then we can help you become qualified. This qualification is especially suitable

assessor will guide you in your choice.
How long does it last?

Where will I learn?
- Within your own workplace
- You may need to spend some time at home producing written accounts for your portfolio
After an Induction, you will have your own trainer assessor who will visit you in your work
setting. Your trainer assessor will guide you through the requirements and National Standards that have to be met in
order to achieve your QCF level 2.
How will I be assessed?
You will be assessed through work based practical tasks, observations, and written accounts. You will build up a
portfolio of evidence proving your underpinning knowledge and experience within the sector.
