BARS ADMINISTRATION CERTIFICATE
In Partnership with GREG
Since City and Guilds was withdrawn there has been no formal education material or qualification for administration /failsafe staff in Diabetic Eye Screening.
BARS Education Group in association with Gloucestershire Research & Education Group (GREG) has therefore created a qualification which takes elements of the original City and Guilds unit and expands it to cover a wider knowledge and skills framework.
There are 8 modules. Each provides information, links, and 6 quiz sections.
By the end of the course the candidate will understand:
- Principles of Screening
- Informed choice, consent and clinical governance
- The impact screening may have on individuals
- Quality Assurance
- Diabetes and Eye Screening
- Exclusions and Suspensions
- Communication skills
The course also includes a competency assessment to confirm proficiency upon the patient management system, confidentiality, and the processes for dealing with individuals.
The qualification is hosted by Gloucester Research & Education Group, and a certificate validated as a BARS approved course will be available to download on completion.
This course is FREE OF CHARGE, and we are hoping that Programmes will use this qualification as a tool for staff development, as well as helping staff to gain confidence in their role.
