Documentation and Record Keeping, start to finish.
This training covers how we keep accurate, secure records in the care setting, including our digital record keeping system. Good record keeping protects the people we support, helps us provide better care, and meets our legal duties under data protection law and CQC standards. This is the same module CareStream subscribers get, written for care settings rather than adapted from a generic course. It runs about 35 minutes and ends with a 20 question assessment.

What staff come away with
Good records are accurate, timely, factual, and respectful. They protect the people we support and help us provide safe, responsive care.
Use only your own login and assigned device. Keep devices secure, clean, and charged. Never share access or leave devices unlocked and unattended.
Record care and observations promptly while details are fresh. Write what you saw and did, not opinions or judgments.
Personal information is confidential. Only access records when needed for your work. Never discuss private information with people who do not need to know.
Report any problems with records, devices, or the digital system immediately. Ask for help if you are unsure about anything.
Our digital system helps us provide better care, share information safely with health services, and meet our legal duties under data protection law and CQC standards.

Before you buy.
How long does Documentation and Record Keeping training take?
About 35 minutes, across 6 short lessons, followed by a 20 question assessment with a pass mark of 80%. Staff can stop and pick up where they left off.
What does the Documentation and Record Keeping module cover?
6 lessons: Why Good Record Keeping Matters, Our Digital Record Keeping System, Using Devices Safely and Securely, What Makes a Good Record, Data Protection and Confidentiality and Reporting Problems and Getting Support. Each one pairs the teaching with a care scenario and a quick check.
How often do staff need to refresh Documentation and Record Keeping?
CareStream sets this module so it renews every year. Staff and managers are reminded before a certificate lapses, so the refresher is booked before the gap appears.
Is Documentation and Record Keeping completed fully online?
Yes. It is knowledge based, so staff complete the lessons and the assessment online and receive their certificate at the end. There is no practical sign-off.
Do I need a CareStream subscription to buy this?
No. This page exists precisely so you do not. You buy the licences you need, your staff complete the module in the CareStream hub, and that is the end of it. There is no trial to start, no card kept on file, and no subscription that begins quietly afterwards.
If you later decide you want the full platform, anything your staff have already completed carries across into your account.
What does one licence actually cover?
One licence covers one named member of staff for this one module, including the lesson, the assessment, any follow-up questions triggered by a wrong answer, and their certificate. Licences are not shared between people, because the completion record has to belong to an individual to be worth anything at inspection.
How quickly can staff start?
Immediately. The licences are on your account as soon as the payment clears, and staff get their invite the moment you add them. There is no onboarding call and no setup period.
Can staff complete it in another language?
Yes. Each staff member has a first language on their profile, and the lesson, the questions and the feedback all arrive in it. They answer in that language too. What you see as a manager stays in English, so the record reads the same whoever completed it.
What if someone fails the assessment?
Nothing is lost. A wrong answer triggers a short follow-up lesson on that specific point, and they retry it. The record shows the improvement from the first attempt to the latest, which is stronger evidence than a single pass mark, because it shows the gap was found and closed.
Can I buy for more than one service?
Yes. Buy the total number of licences you need and allocate them across your services when you add staff. If you are licensing for a group and want an invoice rather than a card payment, get in touch and we will raise one.
Licence any of these the same way.
Same price, same terms, no subscription needed.
