Unit 538: Manage Domiciliary Services

As a healthcare provider we have to ensure we have the correct amount of staff as well as staff with the right skill set and qualifications on shift which meets the needs of the people we are supporting.
We do this by implementing standards from the beginning which includes the recruitment process.

1. Telephone Interview
2. Face to face Interview
3. 2 Day mandatory Training
4. Induction and final interview
