The care and support sector is a challenging and demanding field, and disability awareness training can go a long way in meeting these demands. However, the sector also requires a wide range of skills and knowledge to provide effective and compassionate care. That's why the release of these new courses is so important for support workers in this field.

Falls Prevention is crucial because falls can have devastating impacts on individuals' health and well-being. It's essential that support workers can recognise the risks of falls and take steps to prevent them. This course provides learners with the tools they need to identify falls risk factors, minimise risks, and support individuals who have experienced a fall.

The End of Life Bundle includes two courses that are essential for support workers who care for people near the end of their life. After Death explores how to prepare for a person's death, care for the body, and support the person's support network. Letting Go focuses on understanding the dying process, responding to death and grief, and supporting the person's family and friends. These courses provide valuable insights and practical strategies for support workers to help them provide compassionate and effective end-of-life care.

The addition of these courses to the Essential Skills Specialist Courses eLibrary is a significant step forward in supporting the ongoing professional development of support workers in the care and support sector. They provide valuable knowledge and skills through disability awareness training that will help support workers provide high-quality care and support to individuals in need.
