PainChek UK has received certification from the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) service that its training and education modules demonstrate expertise in the field of pain and dementia, whilst meeting industry standards for its approach and structure to best support learning.
Training and education on the topic of pain management in people with dementia is commonly flagged across the sector as a significant challenge when looking at improving outcomes for residents. This latest certification will give care providers the confidence that they’re laying the foundations for their team as they embark on their journey to improve the lives of their residents living with dementia when implementing PainChek.
This certification also means all care teams who undergo the training will be able to collect and log official CPD hours, supporting their personal and professional development in their field.
Speaking about the news, UK Training and Operations Manager, Harj Sadhra said, “This is a fantastic development to PainChek’s training and education processes. PainChek goes above and beyond to ensure we not only provide a robust clinically validated medical device, but also raise the bar when it comes to the level of depth and understanding our users have around pain management and dementia care. It also means all care teams who undergo our training can officially log these CPD hours as they work towards their own professional development”.
About Continuing Professional Development
Continuing Professional Development is a commitment to ongoing lifelong learning. CPD encourages looking forward and identifying opportunities to learn something new, refresh existing knowledge, improve skills, or simply keep up to date with the latest developments within a particular profession or industry.
Continuing Professional Development enables learning to become conscious and proactive, rather than passive and reactive. It involves an individual documenting and keeping a record of the increasing skills, knowledge and experience they gain throughout their career.
CPD combines different methodologies to learning, which includes training courses, seminars, workshops, and online eLearning programs. CPD can also include sharing best practice techniques, thoughts and ideas, all focused on an individual improving within the work environment.
