Audience: This workshop is appropriate for both new and established staff who are actively involved in assessment and planning within aged care programs. Program leaders and managers are also encouraged to attend

This interactive workshop will support staff to build on their assessment and planning skills and consider ways to streamline their approach, without compromising quality.

We will discuss a range of practical ways to:

Build on the information that has already been collected to guide your assessment and planning
Reduce duplication and improve efficiency for clients, carers and staff
Focus on what’s important to the client, their priorities and how you can best support them
Introduce the concept of goal setting and care planning to clients and carers
Engage clients and carers to identify relevant and meaningful goals
Create care plans that are meaningful and useful for you and your clients

The content will align with the requirements of the Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards and how effective assessment and planning is an essential component of a wellness approach. It will reflect the changes to service specific assessment and planning that relate to the broader aged care reforms (including the introduction of the Single Assessment System, Integrated Assessment Tool and Support at Home program).

This session is also aligned to the foundations of the new regulatory model person-centred focuses such as the unique needs, goals, values, preferences, and dignity of older Australians.
