Also. you need a basic understanding of promoting independence, wellbeing and the ability to complete assessments within people’s own home.

You will be required to meet apprenticeship entry criteria, with the commitment and ability to successfully complete a two-year Sensory Rehabilitation apprenticeship and progress into a qualified Sensory Rehabilitation Worker role https://www.visionrehabilitationtraining.com/apprenticeships-1
