Profile
This 4-year course prepares students to work for a rewarding career in social care, a profession characterized by working in partnership with people who experience marginalization, disadvantage, or who have special needs. Students will explore and analyze the development of current and future trends in social care in Ireland and how legislation in this area is drafted and regulated. As well as learning about different models of social care and their appropriateness for different situations, you will also learn how to deliver a social care service, both alone and as part of a team, to people in community, day-care and residential settings.
Notes
