Work Health Trainer level 4
Dynamic Training UK in partnership with Thames Valley University has created a Level 4 continuous professional development module for Health Trainers to become Work Health Trainers.
The Work Health Trainer (WHT) role is new and has been developed from the existing Health Trainer role which was introduced in the wake of the Government White Paper Choosing Health. The summary of the White Paper states:
‘Anyone who wants help to make healthier choices and stick to them will have the opportunity to be supported by a new kind of personal health resource, NHS health trainers. In keeping with a shift in public health approach from advice from on high to support from next door, health trainers will be drawn from local communities, understanding the day-to-day concerns and experiences of the people they are supporting on health’ (DH 2004).
The Work Health Trainer (WHT) follows similar concepts to the Health Trainer but with the focus on enabling people that may be out of work back into employment or meaningful activity. It is with the focus that this module has been developed.
- Demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between health and work and the barriers clients may face in order to get back into work or meaningful activity.
- Explore the affects of worklessness, long term conditions and stress.
- Enable indibiduals back into work or meaningful activity by exploring the principles of assessment and motivation.
- Communicate effectively with clients and promote self-management using coaching techniques.
- Develop the skills needed to understand and establish relationships with employment and health services in the local community, in order to provide a seamless service between relevant agencies.
- Develop a wider knowledge and understanding of promoting health and well-being within the workplace.
