Clinical tasks require specific training, assessment, delegation and authorisation. - Follow care and support plans, keep factual records, give clear handovers and raise safeguarding concerns, incidents and changes in wellbeing promptly. - Medicines, moving and assisting, behaviour support and specialist tasks must remain within your verified competence and the service’s instructions.
