EDUCATION overview
Each team member in a residential aged care home plays a vital role in enhancing residents' quality of life and well-being. The experience of ageing, dying, and death can be challenging for the individual, their loved ones, staff, and all other residents living in the home. Working in this environment demands professional and personal resilience, as every staff member is essential to fostering a safe, compassionate, and nurturing environment that residents call home.
Join us for an open and practical discussion about ageing, death, dying, and how to support residents, families, and colleagues with confidence and compassion, building understanding to have the conversations that matter.
