Expressions of Interest welcomed for Care Technologists project
The National Care Forum (NCF) is looking for people interested in pioneering a new professional role in adult social care: Care Technologist.
Care Technologists are a bridge between traditional care and current technological innovations. The aim of the role is to ensure that as technology is widely implemented it meets the needs of individuals drawing on care. The role was created by Scottish Care who have tested it and evidenced positive outcomes.
The Care Technologist Training Project is intended to support people who’d like to work in this new social care role to gain the skills they will need. It is funded by the Rayne Foundation through their Better Careers, Better Care programme.
NCF would like to hear from people interested in developing the Care Technologist training programme and/or future learners on this programme.
