Complex wound management is a critical skill for support workers and care staff who assist participants with high-intensity daily personal activities under the NDIS. This course introduces learners to the principles of skin integrity, wound prevention, and evidence-based wound care practices. It covers the recognition of different types of wounds, risk factors for skin breakdown, and the importance of following a registered nurse’s wound management care plan. Learners will also explore documentation requirements, infection control practices, and strategies for early escalation of concerns to prevent complications. By the end of the session, participants will understand their role in maintaining participant safety, dignity, and wellbeing through effective wound management.

The purpose of this course is to provide NDIS and disability support workers with the knowledge and skills to understand, identify, and manage the use of chemical restraint in practice. Chemical restraint is one of the most regulated restrictive practices and carries significant ethical, legal, and health implications.
By the end of this training, learners will be able to distinguish between chemical restraint and appropriate medical treatment, recognise the risks and impacts of misuse, apply correct protocols, and comply with reporting requirements under the NDIS Practice Standards.
The ultimate goal is to protect the dignity, human rights, and safety of people with disability, while promoting positive behaviour support strategies and working towards the reduction and elimination of restrictive practices.
