Aged Care

Library Overview

The Aged Care – Residential & Home Care Course Library provides practical, non-accredited micro-learning to support safe, respectful, and person-centred care across both residential aged care and home care environments.
Courses are informed by current Australian aged care regulatory expectations, including the Aged Care Quality Standards, guidance from the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission, and contemporary best practice in consumer dignity, safety, and quality care.
This library focuses on how expectations translate into everyday care interactions — supporting workers to recognise risk early, communicate effectively, maintain professional boundaries, and escalate concerns appropriately across different care settings.
