A workshop and resource for managers, care coordinators and team leaders working in residential aged care services in Queensland.

About the workshop

Participants will work through a range of issues including: sexual consent; new relationships; resident-family conflict; resident and staff rights and responsibilities; unlawful and unwanted sexual contact; sexual boundaries; the experiences of LGBTI residents; and how to use policy and assessment tools.

The workshop approach recognises that traditional PowerPoint training often leaves participants inspired but unsure of what to do with what they have learnt. In this workshop, participants will work from a Resource Kit that includes a sexuality policy, assessment tool, charter of rights and responsibilities and other documents they can take back to their workplace and use. Electronic copies of the documents will be provided so participants can localise them to the needs of their own organisation.

What's included

Registration is inclusive of Resource Kit (policy, assessment tools, charter of resident and staff rights and responsibilities, resources for staff education etc) and follow up phone consultation. A light lunch and afternoon tea will also be provided.

Cancellation policy

Participants may cancel their registration in writing 10 working day prior to the commencement of the workshop and receive a full refund.
