For care homes and NHS departments who wish to deliver truly person-centred care through embedding personalised music into care.
This tailor-made ‘Certified’ course has been developed alongside practitioners to support health and social care teams to integrate Playlist for Life into existing care networks helping to showcase to residents, families and regulators, a commitment to providing excellent person-centred care.
Following implementation of Playlist for Life within the organisation, this course gives the opportunity to apply to become a Playlist for Life ‘Certified Establishment‘. Certified Establishments are awarded a plaque to display publicly, demonstrating to all visitors that they are using Playlist for Life as part of their care package.
This package is about more than simply sending staff on a course. We offer a combined package of training and support to help your team bring about culture-change that can:
Demonstrate a sector leading performance to inspectors, in which:
– Staff are empowered to innovate, providing care and support which is truly person-centred.
– Residents experience support that promotes independence and choice.
– Residents feel connected to staff, family, friends, and the wider community.
– Residents are supported to live well with dementia, with the opportunity to maintain and develop their interests, activities and what matters to them.
Training can be delivered online or face to face. There will be additional costs for face to face delivery.
