This course reflects the role of individuals in the community, home or residential care setting who work under supervision and delegation as a part of a multi-disciplinary team, following an individualised plan to provide person-centred support to people who may require support due to ageing, disability or some other reason.
These individuals take responsibility for their own outputs within the scope of their job role and delegation. Workers have a range of factual, technical and procedural knowledge, as well as some theoretical knowledge of the concepts and practices required to provide person-centred support.
The Certificate III in Individual Support provides individuals with the essential skills to support people in ageing and disability care. The course focuses on person-centred care, assisting clients with daily activities, and promoting independence and well-being. Graduates are equipped to work in roles such as Aged Care Worker or Disability Support Worker, providing high-quality care in residential, home, or community settings.
