As the life expectancy of Australians continues to increase, so too does the desire for older people to keep living in their own homes for as long as possible. By taking a wellness and reablement approach to aged care service delivery, you can help older people stay as independent as possible, for as long as possible.

This Training Module looks at how you can help older people build on their strengths and set meaningful goals. Rather than doing things for the person, you will be empowered to support and work alongside them in order to promote autonomy and independence.
