The sections of the Care Act which are of particular significance for a partnership approach includes:

• Have wellbeing at the heart of their care and support – the ‘wellbeing principle’.
• Receive services that prevent their care needs from becoming more serious, or delay the impact of their needs.
• Can get the information and advice they need to make good decisions about care and support.
• Have a range of high-quality care providers to choose from.

The Care Act Guidance was updated on 24 June 2020. You can access the latest guidance on the Gov.UK website.

The following guidelines have been developed to ensure that every individual attending a course is able to contribute, participate and benefit from the learning:

• Anyone arriving 20 minutes following the start of any course without prior agreement may be asked to rebook whether this is face to face or virtually (at the facilitator’s discretion).
• Delegates are expected to arrive 15 minutes before the start of a face-to-face course to register and access any available refreshments.
• If you need to cancel your booked place on training, please let us and your manager know as soon as possible so that we can cancel your allocated place.
• For virtual training there is an expectation that delegates turn their cameras on and their microphones on mute (unless you need to speak) this supports the facilitators to engage with the delegates similar to a face-to-face course.
• Some virtual training with large numbers of attendees performs better when your camera is off to reduce delays, but your facilitator will advise you of this.
