Introduction:
As part of preparing for the complexity of practice in relation to best interests and the deprivation of liberty a practitioner requires an understanding of risk and risk management. Additionally, practitioners also need the necessary skills and knowledge to balance human rights alongside safeguarding.
This course will enable you to identify what constitutes risk and then focus on risk assessment strategies that are available, along with considering a checklist for good practice in relation to best interests and deprivation of liberty.
On completion of this course and the three others that make up the suite, you will be in a strong position to train as a BIA on the course offered by the University and your prior learning will be recognised.
