Fluids and Nutrition Training – Supporting Health and Well‑Being in Care

£15.00

Good nutrition and hydration are critical to overall health, recovery, and quality of life. This fluids and nutrition training course is designed for health and social care staff and aligns with the Care Certificate (Standard 8). It provides the essential knowledge needed to recognise poor nutrition, encourage fluid intake, and promote safe eating and drinking practices.

Learners will explore the causes of poor nutrition, the role of essential nutrients, and the importance of a balanced diet. In addition, the course covers the ‘eatwell’ plate, dehydration risks, and food safety measures. By applying these principles, participants will be able to monitor eating and drinking effectively and support individuals in maintaining their independence and well‑being.

By the end of this fluids and nutrition training, learners will understand how to promote healthy eating and hydration in line with care standards.
