Common Health Conditions - Level 2 Certificate (RQF) Course

The Common Health Conditions - Level 2 Certificate (RQF) Course is ideal if you are an experienced health care worker or new to the industry, caring for clients or patients in a work environment.

The aims of this qualification are to enable the learner to understand the importance of monitoring the health of individuals which are affected by these specific health conditions. It also improves the learner’s knowledge and understanding of a range of health conditions of which their patients or clients may be experiencing.

The learner will gain an understanding of monitoring individuals in their care, what observations should be carried out on these individuals and gain an understanding of how to record and report the findings of those observations.

The course is designed as a knowledge-based qualification and assists with the underpinning knowledge that is required to function more effectively in a health and social care environment. A wider range of needs by the clients or patients are required to be supported and this programme will assist you with the specific knowledge needed.

On successful completion of this course, students will receive a TQUK Level 2 Certificate Qualification (RQF) with 13 Credits.

You will receive access to the course materials through an online portal for a 12-month period. Students can use the portal for accessing their course materials, submitting assignments and to log tutor questions. 

Please Note: An optional hard-copy version of the course notes can be purchased for an additional £48.00. This is useful for learners who also want to study away from the computer and means they have course notes they can keep and refer back to beyond their online course license.

Delivery of the hard-copy materials is usually within 5 to 10 working days by a recorded delivery service.

As this is a self-study course, you can enrol at any time. There are no particular entry requirements for this course, and learners can enrol providing they feel comfortable studying at a Level 2 standard.

You can start this course at any time, and you would be registered for a one-year period. You also have access to a personal tutor who can be contacted through the online portal or by email. Your tutor is available to assist with any queries and to mark your assignments for the Awarding Organisation.

As the course is self-study, you can complete it as quickly as you like. Support extensions are available if students do not complete the course within the one-year period.

Learners will be required to complete a number of assignments. Your personal tutor will review, mark and provide you with feedback on your work. Coursework assignments can be returned by uploading to the online portal, by email or by post, and assignment marking will usually take between 5–10 working days.

We recommend that assignments are completed and returned as word-processed documents through the online portal. Handwritten documents can be accepted but need to be clear and legible and may be subject to a longer marking time.
