A valuable professional development opportunity is coming soon. This four-hour workshop will bring together HACC providers, Regional Assessors, Aged Care Assessment Teams and people involved in hospital discharge of HACC clients to learn more about the WAAF client pathway and how the Wellness Approach plays a part in the assessment process.

Our team of consultants are often asked what resources are available to support organisations to implement the Wellness Approach. These resources are many and varied. But did you know that one of our greatest resources is our consultants themselves, who are keen to support and work with you to help make the organisational changes required?

Chung Wah delivers HACC services to Chinese people and older people from a variety of multicultural backgrounds in the Perth metropolitan area. During a recent interview, Teresa Kwok (CEO) and Chung Wah Community and Aged Care Coordinator, Ricky Lee, shared their organisation’s experience of implementing the Wellness Approach. They talk about how this new way of working has made an amazing difference to the integrity and quality of life of their clients – and staff.

Have you started planning to implement the Wellness Approach, but feel like you don’t have the right tools? There’s no need to look any further. The Sector Development department has an easy to follow 'pathway' tool to assist you and your team on the journey.
