Testimonial

“Clear presentation, well paced group activities, very useful to do.”

Italia Mignone
Manager Community Services, Multicultural Aged Care

“The session was a great mix of theory and practice that encouraged input from all attending. Documentation and Care Planning for CHSP has long been due.

A lot of training previously has focused around HCP programs and higher care services documentation. This training hit the mark for the attendees and met the needs of coordinators and staff working in CHSP services from personal care, domestic assistance to Social Support Group and individual.

Bernadette shared her knowledge and experience providing great examples along with referencing the Aged Care Standards.”
