Excellent training linked to practice throughout

i really enjoyed the course. i have gained so much knowledge from today. i do not feel confident as it is such a large topic and i have no real life experience i have much better knowledge to make a start.

Sue's training approach is accessible and open but rich with a depth of knowledge that gives confidence to me as a learner and places my practice within a human rights foundation from which to explore.

As a student social worker, my knowledge at the beginning of the course was quite limited, particularly in terms of practical experience. Sue created space for discussions where experienced social workers could share examples from practice, and she explained the relevant legislation very clearly, which I found extremely helpful. Sue delivered the course content in an excellent way that was accessible and easy to understand, even for someone with limited knowledge and practice experience. The integration of case law throughout the course was particularly effective in supporting and developing my understanding.

I'm feeling pretty confident about my practice and devotion to not worry about being the square peg in the round wholes at times. I view the person's voice the most important, but recognise in my 60 years how thoughts and feelings do change, and if you do not get the opportunity to tell others of change before this horrible disease comes upon you, one must look out for actions of the person to try to evaluate thoughts at that time. As 'that time' is the answer to support, in all situations, to allow an elderly to still have decision making ability and happiness in their view to be accomplished. Thanks Sue, you were brilliant with the discussion and training. Hope to see you again.

The training was fantastic and the relationship to other legislation was made clear. All questions were answered by the trainer. Good opportunities to be interactive.

Extremely helpful session

Great course

An enjoyable course that was informative without getting too complex with the legal information. The trainer was knowledgeable, friendly and engaging as well as being professional. He was very clear with boundaries of what he was able to help with. The breakout rooms were helpful to have discussions with colleagues. The coroner's court role-play was helpful with the provided feedback. It may be helpful for the trainer to have more knowledge on the policies and systems within the NHS to help with relating it to our roles more, but I understand that this is difficult to do when not working in this field.

Course material would have been better received prior to the course so reading could have been carried out.
