  • Recognising and reducing ageism – new Alis module

    Ageism can affect the safety, wellbeing and quality of life of older people. It can influence the way people provide care, often in small ways.

    Addressing ageism helps make sure care is:

    • Fair
    • respectful
    • focuses on what matters most to each older person.

    Published by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission the module includes a self-reflection activity and supports you to:

    • reflect on attitudes and behaviours and recognise ageist assumptions
    • strengthen the way you provide safe, respectful and rights-based, person-centred care
    • think about how your assumptions can affect your everyday practice.

    Recognising and reducing ageism in aged care is available on Alis now.

    You can find out more or register for Alis on our website.
