This valuable training is designed for nurses to improve their function in the health care team. Understanding the vulnerability of the older adult and identifying and protecting them from potential harm is a pivotal role of the nurse. The nurse will develop the skills and knowledge to safely care for the vulnerable person and have confidence in observing and accurately reporting findings for prompt action. Consumers, families, and managers will recognise and become reassured of the workforce’s capability to deliver safe, effective care. The course aligns with aged care quality indicators, standards, and national wound management standards. It has been developed by accessing the best available evidence and translating this information into an essential program for nurses. The training is delivered by a Nurse Practitioner who is realistic and practical when educating and understanding the critical contribution nurses bring to the vulnerable people in their care.
