HEALTH & SOCIAL CARE
The health and social care industry is vast with the NHS employing more than 1.5million people for over 350 different roles. Mental Health and Social Care are areas with a lot of employment opportunities, with increasing numbers of people needing support from mental health professionals and social care workers. The latter support people in a range of settings including private homes, residential homes, day centres and supported housing. It is a rewarding sector and your choice of career can make a real difference to people’s lives. The T-Level in Health will cover a broad range of topics to develop a strong foundation of knowledge and skills that can be applied to a wide range of roles in the health sector. There are also opportunities to specialise with optional units in adult nursing or mental health. At Preston College we have a wide range of learning facilities and equipment that provides a realistic learning experience. These include a fully kitted out hospital ward, hospital beds, dental suite, electric hoist, pregnancy suit, ageing kit and resuscitation dummies.
