Course Overview
Care that fits the person: person centred care training online
Person-centred care means planning support around the individual, not the routine. Person-centred care is also one of the CQC fundamental standards. This person centred care training online shows adult social care staff how to put it into practice.
The course has six short video modules, ending with a case study. Each module needs a 70% pass mark. You study online at your own pace.

Training a team? We can help.
Many care providers, NHS teams and employers use our eLearning to keep staff training current. A business account lets you buy courses in bulk, assign them to staff and track completion in one place. That gives you a clear record for audits and inspections.
Since 2008, Medipro has trained thousands of health and care professionals in the classroom and online. We can help you build a training plan that mixes eLearning with practical, tutor-led courses at our centres.
This topic is also covered in The Care Certificate course for new starters.
What is person-centred care?
It is care planned around a person’s needs, preferences and goals. The person, and those close to them, are involved in decisions. This person centred care training online explains how to apply it.
Is person-centred care a legal requirement?
Yes, in CQC-regulated services. Regulation 9 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 requires care to meet people’s needs and reflect their preferences.
How often should staff repeat this training?
There is no set legal expiry. Many employers refresh this training annually or every 1–3 years, depending on policy.
