Course Overview 
  Central Training's Record Keeping & Report Writing course aims to provide delegates with the opportunity to consider and practice a range of forms of record keeping relevant to social care, including incident and accident forms, daily logs, meeting notes as well as support planning and risk management documentation. The delegates will have the space to consider their own strengths in written recording and ways to build on, and improve their skills in order to achieve effective record keeping and formal report writing. The trainer will finally focus on why keeping records is important for organisations and also explore different skills on how they should be written and kept. Relevant legislation will also be covered, including Data Protection Act 2018 and General Data Protection Regulations principles.
