Managers play a crucial role in social care. You're not only responsible for supporting those who need care and support, but for taking care of staff and influencing the quality of care across the sector.
High-quality care and skilled, confident leaders and managers go hand in hand. Over 90% of services rated good or outstanding for being well-led by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) were also rated good or outstanding overall.
不良研究所 supports the development of leadership skills in adult social care at all levels. Whether you’re a leader looking to develop your own skills or are planning the development of future leaders in your organisation, we’re here to help.
