Hope & Healing for Residential Care
Hope & Healing for Residential Care sets out the foundation for caring and working with young people living in residential care in a way that understands and responds to trauma and is therapeutic in approach.
Accessing training
Staff who are successful in obtaining a residential care worker role will be entered into the system by the organisation they join. The course will need to be successfully completed prior to commencing unsupervised work with children and young people. This will often take place as part of the induction processes.
Due to the structure of the platform and the nature of compliance reporting it is not possible for people to undertake the training until they are employed by a residential care service provider.
Minimum Qualifications for Residential Care Workers
Certificates of Completion
Hope & Healing certificates are issued directly by the employer. PeakCare does not provide certificates or copies. If you have any questions, contact your employer or access Hope & Healing Support.
