Healthcare assistants: induction programme

The Royal College of Nursing’s online induction programme for new healthcare assistants, First Steps for Health Care Assistants, has a new look and a number of new features.

Improvements to the programme include the introduction of an assessment quiz. When all programme sections have been studied, and the quiz is successfully completed, a certificate of completion is issued for your learning portfolio. Accessibility to the programme has also been improved. It is now available via mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones
