Careers
We understand that the service we provide is only as good as the quality of the staff who deliver it, and the training and support they receive.
All staff recruited by Dignus Healthcare are subject to thorough checks prior to commencing employment, with everyone being stringently interviewed, and providing us with proof of their identity and professional references. We ensure that all staff undergo enhanced disclosure checks with the Disclosure and Barring Service, and the POVA list to ensure their suitability for the post.
All references are checked to ensure validity.
Our Training Programme
We believe that our training programme is pivotal in ensuring that we deliver the best possible support to each individual.
Some of our training consists of:
A thorough induction covering:
• The values of our company
• Valuing Peoples' standards
• All mandatory health and safety courses
• Vulnerable adults (SOVA/POVA)
• Equality and Diversity
Staff then move onto courses that are service-user specific:
• Makaton and Communication skills
• Autism
• Epilepsy
• Strategies for crisis intervention
Finally, staff may move onto courses for further self development:
• The Care Certificate
• RQF 2, 3, 4 (the regulated Qualifications Network)
• RQF Level 5 - management
Our staff are always monitored to ensure they apply the knowledge from their training courses within their practical day-to-day support and are subject to a process of review and supervision throughout the year in order to maintain the highest standards of service delivery.
This is by no means an exhaustive list and should the need arise for specialist training, the company will not hesitate to provide it.
