Nurses are one of a few professions many people trust with their lives. However like any other occupation, nursing professionals still need to maintain their skills in their current area of practice and Professional Practice Portfolios (PPP) offers just that. In this highly informative program we discuss what professional portfolios are, including an overview of its structure and look into detail at the two main components vital to a portfolio. Strategies for maintaining a portfolio and advice from some experienced nursing professionals are also provided. This program highlights the importance a portfolio plays in a nursing career and the benefits it adds to the wider community.

Aged care workers often find themselves in positions where they need to think on their feet and deal with conflict effectively. Relationships with residents or clients, their families and carers, other health professionals and managers of aged care services can require delicate balancing.
Through various dramatised scenarios, this program looks at a range of typical situations in an aged care environment where conflict between people occurs.
In each case, several potential responses to the situation are examined and conclusions drawn about the most effective and appropriate ways to deal with them.
Scenarios include conflict between aged care staff and relatives, conflict between peers, conflict between aged care staff and doctors, and conflict between aged care staff and the administration of a facility. This program is an excellent learning resource for nurses, and students undertaking courses related to working in other roles in the aged care industry.
It also serves as an engaging professional development aid for staff of aged care facilities.

Conflict - it occurs in any workplace, and always needs to be carefully managed. In many ways, there is a greater potential for conflict to occur in an aged care environment than in a number of other workplaces. Relationships with residents or clients, their families and carers, other health professionals and managers of aged care services can require delicate balancing. There is generally a range of emotions and issues involved in the care of vulnerable people, and aged care workers often find themselves in positions where they need to think on their feet and deal with conflict effectively.
This program serves as an excellent introduction to conflict in an aged care environment. It defines conflict in various forms, and explores conflicting situations specific to the aged care industry. A range of skills needed for conflict resolution are examined, and the program finishes with a look at behaviours that elicit resistance, and those that elicit cooperation.
This program is an excellent learning resource for nurses, and students undertaking courses related to working in other roles in the aged care industry. It also serves as an engaging professional development aid for staff of aged care facilities.

In caring for the elderly - be it in community-based care or within a residential aged care facility - falls prevention is critical.
Elderly people are often vulnerable to falls for a variety of reasons - it could be related to infirmness, compromised vision, slippery surfaces, ill-fitting footwear, lack of necessary physical support, being affected by medication, or a number of other factors. Furthermore, the physical injury that can occur with falls is generally exacerbated by age, and recovery times can be much longer compared with those for younger people who experience similar incidents.
Knowing how to minimise the risk of falls is essential for any carer or other professional working in aged care.

This program also looks at effective communication methods for those from culturally diverse backgrounds.

Integral to the operations of any workplace is effective communication between all staff. It is particularly important in any area of health service delivery and care, including an aged care environment.

This program will serve as a valuable training and professional development resource for all workers in an aged care environment.

People working in aged care routinely provide love, care and support for the elderly but often they can be less than caring and supportive of each other.
This program examines the definitions, types and ramifications of workplace bullying and harassment.
The program will also assist employees to identify when they, and others, are being subjected to unfair workplace behaviour and, more importantly, what they can do to stop it and prevent its recurrence, thereby creating a safer, happier and more productive workplace for all.

While job seekers worry they don't have qualifications for a particular job, it's a fact of life that most employers are looking for a set of skills, broadly termed 'employability skills'. These include an ability to communicate effectively, work as a team member and solve problems. Punctuality and appropriate dress sense also feature highly. The program takes viewers through the process of assessing their own employability skills and how to improve on areas of weakness.
