Why Autism and Asperger’s Awareness Training Is Essential
Autism is a lifelong developmental condition that affects how a person communicates, interacts with others, and experiences the world. Asperger’s Syndrome, part of the Autism spectrum, often presents unique challenges that are not always immediately visible.
Professionals working in health and social care settings have a duty to provide person-centred, inclusive care. This starts with proper Autism Training—ensuring staff understand the complexities of Autism spectrum conditions and how best to support individuals.
What Is the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training?
The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is the government’s recommended and standardized training in England, developed following the tragic death of Oliver McGowan, a young man with Autism and a learning disability. His story has led to a movement for change in how healthcare providers understand and care for neurodivergent individuals.
This training is now a statutory requirement for all health and social care staff. It is based on the Capabilities Framework and aligns with the Health and Care Act 2022.
