The role of the disability support worker includes assisting people with a disability with their medications. The specific unit Support people with disability to use medications (VU22962) is developed as the centre point of this course. This accredited unit covers the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to support people with a disability to use medications. People with disability may be of any age and may have any form of disability. It includes working within the scope of the support worker role to prompt and assist a person with a disability with medication use.

This course will provide you with the skills and knowledge required to provide first aid response, life support (CPR), management of casualty(s), the incident and other first aiders, in a range of situations, including; in the home, workplace or within the community until the arrival of medical or other assistance.

This course requires a theoretical and practical assessment. Content is based on Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines.

This course is an extension of Provide first aid HLTAID003. It equips graduates with the skills and knowledge to modify their approach if required to provide effective first aid to a person with a disability affecting their body systems and/or mobility, e.g. a person who is in a bed or wheelchair.

In many instances, the response to be provided to a person with a disability is the same, such as in the case of anaphylaxis or allergic reaction, for example. However, some first aid situations require the application of modified first response techniques, for example, responding to a person who is in a bed or wheelchair who is seizing or choking. This course includes the unit Provide first aid to a person with a disability (DFAADF001) that provides skills and knowledge to apply modified techniques where the first aid response differs for a person with a disability. In addition, it includes the ability to recognise and report that a person may be severely depressed or suicidal.

Please note: This is an additional subject and you will be provided with a voucher to cover the full cost of this module at ONCALL Training College. Participants will be expected to enrol for this subject in their own time within the first 22-weeks of the JobReady program.
