Combine your caring, nurturing and empathetic nature with specialised skills and knowledge to provide both physical and emotional support to clients and their families. Learn how to follow an individualised plan to provide the best possible person-centred care; facilitate the empowerment of older people; meet personal care needs while maintaining client integrity; and support those living with dementia.

Develop your effective communication skills, along with the legal and ethical requirements for consideration while working with diverse people. You will also gain an understanding around healthy body systems and best practices for infection control.

Successful completion of this Nationally Recognised qualification can boost your employability as a care worker or assistant in nursing in a residential aged care facility. Typically this incredibly rewarding role involves helping older people with a range of care needs to achieve their day to day and long-term goals.
