Chaperone Training
Our Chaperone Training equips healthcare professionals and support staff with the knowledge and confidence needed to provide safe, respectful and professional support during patient examinations.
Chaperones play an important role in protecting patient dignity, maintaining trust and ensuring examinations are carried out in a safe and appropriate environment.
This practical course explores the responsibilities of a chaperone, including confidentiality, communication, professional boundaries and responding appropriately to concerns.
