End of Life Care at Home

It can be hard to talk about end of life care, but it's important for personal care workers. This series will give learners the ability to help older Australians feel comfortable and autonomous while nearing their end of life. They will also learn how to balance the needs and wants of families and loved ones.

‍

By the end of this question set, learners will be able to:

• Execute appropriate techniques for ensuring the needs of all parties are met when the older Australian is dying.
• Implement appropriate strategies for responding to recognised concerns from the older Australian or their family.
