The Professional Report Writing for Social Care Professionals training course is for anyone that is responsible for the recording of information or report writing. Report writing is a complex task requiring good understanding and judgement, empathy, sensitivity, and good written communication skills. Reports or documents may be to inform, to record or to persuade. Writing reports is a similar process to assessment; the person writing the report gathers information, organises and logically presents information, and concludes. The new GDPR guidelines introduced in 2018 is an important component of this training and will be explored throughout.
