Year 1 (Year 12 Content) Unit 2: Equality, Diversity and Rights in Health and Social Care: This unit will help you to understand the implications of diversity on practice and the effects of discriminatory practice on individuals who require care or support. You will also gain an appreciation of how legislation and national initiatives can support and promote anti-discriminatory practice. Strategies used to promote equality, respect diversity and support individuals’ rights will be examined. Unit 4: Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care, Illness and Disability: This unit aims to introduce you to the basic structure and functions of the body systems involved in everyday activities and maintenance of health, including cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems. Unfortunately, things do go wrong, and each system has well-known diseases and disorders. Also, as individuals grow older, they are likely to be affected by malfunctions as a result of degeneration. Unit 13: Sexual health, reproduction, and early development stages: Health and wellbeing are not just relevant when you are an adult; it is just as relevant when you are a child and, as this unit demonstrates, health and wellbeing is of vital importance even before you are born. This unit will also look at the development from conception to a one-year-old child. On successful completion you will have a sound understanding of the importance of sexual health and contraception. You will understand pre-natal health and the various stages of pregnancy and the factors that could have an impact. Year 2 (Year 13 Content) Unit 1: Building Relationships in Health and Social Care: This unit aims to introduce you to the many different relationships that you will encounter within the health and social care sector, whether with colleagues, senior members of staff, other professionals within the sector or individuals who require care and support. You will also be introduced to the concept of the person-centred approach which will help with your relationship building skills. Unit 3: Health, safety and security in Health and Social Care: This unit introduces you to health, safety and security in health and social care. You will learn how legislation, policies and procedures work to reduce risks in health and social care and the consequences of not following them. Unit 24: Public Health: Health and wellbeing extends further than the individual and the implication of poor health has wider impacted on a community, area and even the country. There are many external factors to good health. Clean water and limiting pollution are just two factors that have an influence on our health. Public health is concerned with protecting and improving the health of the population, rather than focusing on the health of the individual. You will gain an understanding of current public health strategies and initiatives and consider the effectiveness and the implications of health policy for the wider population.
