  • UK Level 3 National Vocational Qualification in Health (Decontamination)

    The new Level 3 NVQ in Health (Decontamination) has now been launched. The Institute of Decontamination Sciences (IDSc) is working with Eastwood Park, Falfield to be the central delivery route for this qualification.

    This NVQ is appropriate for those who are actively involved in the collection, preparation, loading and decontamination of surgical instruments and medical devices. It covers both manual cleaning of instruments as well as the loading and operating of decontamination equipment in a Sterile Services or Decontamination Department. Candidates will also prepare and carry out sterilisation of re-usable medical devices. All SSD staff should consider working towards this NVQ as it supersedes the current TVQ, which will be phased out in 2007.

    Eastwood Park is also a Grade 'A' learning centre for A1 NVQ Assessor and V1 NVQ Internal Verifier Awards. The A1 Award is mandatory for anyone who is not yet qualified to 'D32/D33' and wishes to assess candidates undertaking the Decontamination NVQ, either in-house or peripatetically. In addition, you must be occupationally competent in the field of decontamination to assess this NVQ. If you have a qualified and occupationally competent NVQ assessor 'in-house', it will drastically reduce the fee for candidates undertaking the Decontamination NVQ. The V1 Award is mandatory for anyone who wishes to internally verify assessments of candidates undertaking the Decontamination NVQ, either in-house or peripatetically. You must be occupationally knowledgeable in the field of decontamination and the NVQ assessment processes to undertake this role.
