Designed specifically for the health and social care workforce, the Clinical Skills Hub provides practical, hands-on training in a realistic clinical environment. The newly launched subscription service allows care homes and other providers to offer their teams continuous access to high-quality training sessions throughout the year, ensuring sustained professional development and improved standards of care.
Courses available through the subscription include catheterisation, venepuncture, wound care and prevention, end of life care, and medication management, to name just a few. The Clinical Skills Team at Warrington & Vale Royal College will also carry out a training needs analysis and provide bespoke training sessions to address individual training gaps, ensuring that all members of the care provider’s workforce have a consistent level of training. Training will primarily take place at the college’s Health & Social Care Academy, located at either the Warrington or Winsford campus, where millions of pounds have been invested in state-of-the-art facilities. Care workers will benefit from using up-to-date equipment and learning from expert tutors who are leaders in their field. There is also the option for some training to be delivered on-site at the care provider’s premises.
By joining the subscription service, providers can ensure their staff are equipped with up-to-date knowledge and practical skills that directly benefit service users. The flexible model supports both new recruits and experienced staff, helping to build confidence, improve retention, and meet ongoing regulatory requirements. Subscription fees vary depending on the size of the organisation. For more information about pricing, please contact clinicalskills@wvr.ac.uk.
