Course-Certificate-III-AgedCareWork-CHC30102 - I was given an opportunity to study Certificate III in Aged Care Work at CTA. During my studies I gained useful knowledge on how the aged care system works. The main focus of this course was to educate us about all the aspects of an Aged Care environment, while keeping in mind the quality of life for our ageing population. We also learned all the processes of ageing and how to take care of our clients in any given situation, whether that is in a home environment or at a facility. Other core units were hygiene, safety procedures, client well being, legal procedures, activities, and all the different stages of ageing such as dementia and other illnesses. Everything that was taught in the class we were able to put it in the practice. This amazing experience made me realise how important this course is and how much the Aged Care Industry needs courses like this to educate staff on correct procedures. Not only do the students benefit from this working knowledge but most importantly the clients reap the rewards. I would recommend this course to anybody who wants to work in the field of Aged Care. The course was fantastic and well organised. If you are truly dedicated to the development of your career then CTA is a great starting point.
I would like to thank the coordinator Ekaterina for her excellent teaching skills and great help.
