1 Social care (Adults, England) Knowledge set for dementia 1. Guidance notes What are knowledge sets? Part of the sector skills council Skills for Care and Development Knowledge sets are sets of key learning outcomes for specific areas of work within adult social care. They are designed to improve consistency in the underpinning knowledge learnt by the adult social care workforce in England. It is intended that the key learning outcomes within each knowledge set will be used by employers to develop in-house learning and by training providers, publishers and awarding bodies to produce learning programmes, resources (CD-ROMs, videos, workbooks) and, potentially, awards. The key learning outcomes are intended to provide minimum standardised outcomes that employers may use either to produce their own in-house learning or learning packages or as a benchmark when buying in learning provision or learning packages. Knowledge sets are written in a particular way to ensure that each learning outcome can be identified. However, learning programme writers may choose to produce learning programmes or learning sessions where the outcomes are in a different order to that presented here or in a more integrated way. The learning outcomes are intended as a minimum. Further outcomes should be added to meet needs specific to workplaces and to people who use services. Why were knowledge sets commissioned? The amount and complexity of underpinning knowledge required by adult social care workers has long been unclear. The concept of knowledge sets came from a need to help employers understand the amount and complexity of underpinning knowledge required to deliver a gold star service to people who use services and to their carers, e.g. families and friends. In addition to the Skills for Care and the Health and Social Care national occupational standards (NOS the standards that underpin the NVQs), the knowledge sets provide a consistent guide to the underpinning knowledge required to assist employers to ensure that workers in a range of work settings have sufficient knowledge and understanding to meet the needs of people who use services and of carers. The development of knowledge sets is designed to empower employers to produce appropriate in-house learning sessions for their workers or to buy in learning with some degree of confidence about what will be included in the learning packages. The knowledge sets will facilitate consistency in learning packages produced throughout England so that employers can have greater confidence about the learning that employees transferring from other organisations and other regions may have received. How and when might knowledge sets be used? Knowledge sets are designed to be used separately or alongside the and as part of a worker s continuing professional development. Their aim is to provide specific standardised knowledge and understanding to help social care workers undertake their role. Knowledge set for dementia, p.1
2 The knowledge sets have been mapped to: the Health and Social Care NOS at levels 2, 3 and 4 the General Social Care Council (GSCC) Code for social care workers. It is important to note that this mapping is not absolute. As a result, this Dementia knowledge set may also provide underpinning knowledge to other Health and Social Care. Where and how will knowledge sets be undertaken? The employer and employee will decide the most suitable method of undertaking this learning in line with the needs of the service and the people who use it. Employers may choose to offer knowledge sets delivered in-house by their own trainers or on the premises of external learning providers. They may use specialists in the field in the delivery of some learning. Who will use knowledge sets? Employers will use knowledge sets to provide knowledge and understanding in particular subjects for their workers so that the service benefits from: essential learning for specific tasks enhanced worker practice staff being supported to complete their NVQs by a systematic approach to underpinning knowledge. Social care workers will use knowledge sets to: assist their development of new skills to open up career options and as part of their continuing professional development improve self confidence support transition between different service settings in the social care sector ensure that they are working in accordance with current good practice. Professional language or correct terminology has been used. Knowledge sets have been written primarily for employers rather than for individual learners. Individual learners might find the progress log document accompanying each knowledge set more useful than the main knowledge set document itself. Learning providers, publishers and awarding bodies will also use knowledge sets in the design of training programmes, materials and awards. Service setting and role The knowledge sets contribute to the continuing professional development of workers in a wide variety of settings, and they are therefore not service specific. Learning programme writers and learning providers can use the knowledge sets as a framework of minimum underpinning knowledge when they are developing customised learning provision appropriate to a particular learner or type of learner and to a particular service provision. The term learner here includes both paid and unpaid staff, carers or family members, friends and others interested in learning about a specific subject area. Knowledge set for dementia, p.2
3 Lists used within the key learning outcomes The learning outcomes have been expanded from single statements to include specific guidance to the learning programme writers or learning providers. The lists are not exhaustive and are included as examples. They may be expanded upon to suit specific service areas and learners. In addition, the meanings of key words and concepts included within the learning outcomes have been listed at the end of each knowledge set. Using current legislation and guidance Legislation and guidance is constantly being amended or added to and it is very important that learning providers refer to the most recent legislation and guidance applicable to any given knowledge set when developing programmes or materials. Values statement The key purpose identified for those working in health and social care settings is to provide an integrated, ethical and inclusive service, which meets agreed needs and outcomes of people requiring health and/or social care. Topics covered by knowledge sets At the end of 2005 Skills for Care s Occupational and Qualifications committee had approved an initial four knowledge sets for publication: Infection prevention and control Dementia Medication Workers not involved in direct care. At the same time, work was in progress on further knowledge sets scheduled for Knowledge set progress logs In addition to the knowledge set documents themselves (such as the present document), there is also a progress log edition for each knowledge set. Both types of document are freely downloadable at (see Our Projects/Types of Learning/Knowledge Sets). A progress log will be required for each individual worker/learner for each knowledge set. Individuals should be enabled to keep copies of their progress logs showing their signed off progress for their NVQ portfolios.
