The Course

This online course helps you understand the importance of oral care in health and social care settings. It is suitable for those working in care roles or those looking to develop their knowledge in this area.

You will learn how good oral health supports overall wellbeing. The course explores common oral health conditions and how they can affect individuals. You will also look at how to support daily oral care and promote good hygiene practices.

You will develop an understanding of how to recognise concerns and respond in a safe and appropriate way. The course also covers how to support individuals who may need additional help with their oral care.

This course provides practical knowledge that can be applied in care settings and helps you support individuals with confidence.

There are no formal qualifications required. An interest in health and social care and supporting others is recommended.
