Course Description

The purpose of this course is to equip disability and aged care workers with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to integrate environmental sustainability into daily practice. In care settings, sustainability is not only about reducing environmental harm but also about maintaining safe, hygienic, and efficient services for participants. By the end of this training, learners will understand how sustainability connects to their duty of care, compliance with NDIS Practice Standards, and workplace health and safety requirements. This course highlights practical strategies for waste reduction, energy and water conservation, and sustainable procurement, ensuring staff can meet both environmental and service delivery responsibilities. The ultimate goal is to build care environments that are safe, resource-conscious, and future-focused.

  1. Define environmental sustainability in the context of NDIS and aged care service delivery, and explain why it is important.
