"summary": "This course runs at our partner college CECOS College London\n\nThis course has been designed to produce the professionals of the future, who can positively address the challenges that health and social care presents. Meeting the health and social care needs of the population is one of the greatest challenges facing any society. It extends to almost every facet of social life, from the person who is unwell and seeking support for themselves, to political decisions about how to structure national systems of healthcare delivery.\n\nThroughout your studies you will be taught by friendly, knowledgeable lecturers who are well equipped to help you relate your study topics to current policy and practice.\n\nThe first year of your course offers you the opportunity to develop core transferable skills and knowledge relevant to health care, social care and public health.\n\nDuring the course you will undertake a minimum of 70 hours work experience . Ideally, you will undertake your work experience in a health and social care setting which you will find yourself or CECOS College will support you to find a placement if necessary. If you are already working in a health and social care setting (e.g. Healthcare Assistant etc), this can count as your work experience and you do not need to look for an additional placement.\n\nYour learning will help you to develop the knowledge relevant to a productive future in the health and social care sectors. Employability skills are embedded throughout the course, with a clear focus on how studies can be applied within the workplace. These skills, which include professionalism, effective communication and the evaluation of evidence, can be applied in a range of areas, such as management, education and public health.\n\nSuccessful completion of this course will place you in a position to take full advantage of a diverse range of graduate-level health and social care positions, not only within the public sector, such as the Local Authority, National Health Service( NHS), Public Health England but also the not-for-profit (voluntary) and private/independent health and social care sectors. Some examples of these roles include:\n\n\n- The provision of health and social care, such as working with vulnerable adults, children and the elderly\n\n\n- Management and administration positions within health and social care organisations\n\n\n- Public health and community development-related roles, such as health promotion, public information and health training\n\n\n- Personnel and resource management posts in the private sector, local authorities and voluntary organisations\n\n\n- Policy-oriented work (including lobbying and advocacy) in the NHS, local government or voluntary sector\n\n\n- Research and evaluation of health and social care services\n\n\nThis degree programme is also excellent preparation for research or postgraduate study. You may also choose to continue in to postgraduate study in areas such as social work, adult or mental health nursing, public health, or opt to follow an academic route completing a teaching qualification (PGCE) and become lecturers in further education.",
