Description

Oral disease is a widespread global concern, affecting a staggering 3.9 billion individuals worldwide. Alarmingly, untreated tooth decay impacts nearly half of the global population, making it one of the most prevalent health conditions. This online Oral Health training course is indispensable, not only for the oral well-being of your clients but also for their overall health. Poor oral hygiene can lead to various oral diseases, contributing to respiratory infections, cardiovascular issues, and complications related to diabetes. It's evident that oral health goes beyond cosmetic concerns; it's a matter of life and death.

Our Oral Health training equips care staff with vital knowledge to prioritize oral health and its profound impact on general well-being. Participants will learn how to provide effective care for individuals who may struggle to communicate pain or distress, deliver daily oral hygiene practices, recognize and report concerns promptly, and understand the significance of denture marking. Upon successful completion, learners will receive an Oral Health Awareness certificate, serving as documented evidence of their learning for inspectors and stakeholders.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
