COMMON HEALTH CONDITIONS

Every hour, someone in the UK is told they have Parkinson’s disease, there are approximately 152,000 strokes in the UK every year (more than one every five minutes), and one in six of the UK population have some form of hearing loss. These health conditions, along with others such as arthritis and dementia, affect a substantial proportion of the population. A good understanding of common health conditions is essential in any care environment.

This distance learning level 2 qualification in Common Health Conditions will focus on understanding how to contribute to monitoring the health of individuals affected by health conditions and awareness of the different conditions such as dementia and arthritis.

The qualification will be completed remotely with support from a Tutor in up-to 12 weeks.
