When the people in your care eat well and drink enough, they maintain strength, resist infection, heal faster, and enjoy a far better quality of life. When they don't, the consequences — malnutrition, dehydration, increased vulnerability, and decline — can be devastating and, in many cases, entirely preventable. This CPD-accredited Fluids and Nutrition in Care Training from Global Safety Academy equips you with the knowledge, awareness, and practical skills to ensure that every individual you support receives the nutrition and hydration they need, safely, consistently, and in line with their plan of care.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhether you're a care assistant serving meals and drinks on a daily basis, a senior worker overseeing nutritional care plans, or a manager ensuring your service meets regulatory standards — this fluids and nutrition in care training is designed for you. It covers the full picture: from the importance of food safety, hygiene, and contamination prevention to the hands-on, person-centred practice of supporting individuals to eat and drink in accordance with their specific needs and preferences.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis course also serves as essential food safety in care training, addressing where and how contamination can occur — whether biological, chemical, physical, or allergenic — and what you must do to prevent it. You'll learn why food safety and hygiene in the preparation and handling of food are non-negotiable in any care setting, and how lapses in these areas can put the most vulnerable people at serious risk.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat sets this fluids and nutrition in care training apart is its relentless focus on care-plan-led practice. You'll learn how to carry out nutritional assessments, ensure food and drinks are provided at the right temperature, within reach, and refreshed regularly — especially for individuals with restricted movement. You'll understand how to select appropriate utensils to meet individual needs, how to encourage and support eating and drinking with dignity and patience, and how to recognise and report concerns when nutritional or hydration needs are not being met.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBy the end of this CPD-accredited food safety in care training, you'll be confident in your ability to recognise the signs and symptoms of malnutrition and dehydration, prevent contamination at every stage of food handling, and deliver nutritional care that is safe, person-centred, and compliant. You'll hold a verified certificate from Global Safety Academy — evidence that you take this critical aspect of care seriously and are equipped to protect the health and wellbeing of every individual in your care.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Safety Academy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54027114742099,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/8591\/0099\/files\/FluidsandNutritioninCareTraining.webp?v=1781777830","url":"https:\/\/globalsafetyacademy.net\/products\/fluids-and-nutrition-in-care-training","provider":"Global Safety Academy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
