Chaperoning in Primary Care
This online Primary Care Chaperone course is designed for non-clinical staff who may be asked to act as chaperones and require formal training in intimate examinations.
- GMC and CQC Aligned: This course meets strict standards set by the General Medical Council and Care Quality Commission, ensuring you receive training that complies fully with healthcare regulations.
- Culturally Sensitive: We raise awareness of cultural diversity so chaperones can ensure all patients feel safe and respected, regardless of background or identity.
- Interactive and Engaging: Delivered over three hours, our training encourages conversation, questions, and sharing of real-life examples.
- Focused on Primary Care Settings: Unlike generic chaperone courses, ours is specifically tailored for general practice staff.
- In-Depth Understanding of Intimate Examinations: Learn to appreciate each patient’s unique preferences and vulnerabilities, and become aware of unconscious biases that may affect patient comfort.
- Safeguarding and Reporting: Understand your role in safeguarding and how to report any concerns or complaints raised before, during, or after the examination.
