Knowing healthcare workers can be the first point of contact for those at risk of suicide, specialised training is critical.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Co-designed with industry bodies, Wesley LifeForce provides a range of suicide prevention training that is tailored to the healthcare sector, including:<\/p> These professionals already have a significant understanding of the risk factors associated with suicide and the measures required to support those at risk. Our suicide prevention training enables them to develop their knowledge and expertise, while participating in continuing professional development.<\/p> The learning outcomes are:<\/p> This workshop meets the 2020-2022 triennium Accredited Activity CPD Education Standards of 40 CPD points through the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP).<\/p> This training program has also been approved by the Australian College of Rural and Remote Medicine (ACRRM) and can be logged as Continuing Professional Development (CPD) hours as part of the Professional Development Portfolio (PDP).<\/p> It has been endorsed by the Australian Practice Nurses Association (APNA) according to approved quality standards criteria.<\/p> Completion of this educational activity entitles eligible participants to claim six CPD hours.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t As part of the medical practice accreditation program, General Practice Office Staff are required to be able to triage patients. We have developed suicide prevention training especially for frontline staff to not only recognise physical issues, but be supported to respond effectively to signs of patients experiencing mental distress.<\/p> This workshop will highlight the important role General Practice office staff have in identifying patients at risk of suicide.<\/p> The learning outcomes are:<\/p> The Wesley LifeForce Suicide Prevention Training for Practice Staff has been allocated two Australian Association of Practice Management (AAPM) CPD points per one hour of education.<\/p> Counsellors are key to supporting clients dealing with significant life changes. While many already have an understanding of the risk factors associated with suicide, its prevalence in our communities means it is important to learn simple and effective suicide intervention strategies.<\/p> The learning outcomes are:<\/p> This program constitutes four hours of professional development.<\/p> Depression in older people is a risk factor associated with suicide and it is critical that Aged Care Nurses are equipped to recognise the signs that a resident of an aged care facility may be contemplating suicide.<\/p> The learning outcomes are:<\/p> This program is designed to meet the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia CPD requirements.<\/p> For aged care providers, the safety and well-being of residents is paramount. Equipping Aged Care workers with the necessary knowledge and skills to record and report if someone is at risk of suicide in their facility is vital.<\/p> The learning outcomes are:<\/p> To book training or find out more information call the Wesley LifeForce head office on\u00a01800 100 024<\/a>\u00a0or email\u00a0lifeforce@wesleymission.org.au<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Knowing healthcare workers can be the first point of contact for those at risk of suicide, specialised training is critical. …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":31027,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":"","advanced-sidebar-menu\/link-title":"","advanced-sidebar-menu\/exclude-page":false},"find-a-service-newsletter-tags":[],"move-to-top-of-sidebar":[],"custom-layouts":[],"exclude-from-nav":[],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2024-05-06 20:17:36","action":"change-status","newStatus":"private","terms":[],"taxonomy":"custom-layouts"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/find-a-service\/32396"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/find-a-service"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/find-a-service"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/find-a-service\/32396\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/find-a-service\/31027"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32397"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"find-a-service-newsletter-tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/find-a-service-newsletter-tags?post=32396"},{"taxonomy":"move-to-top-of-sidebar","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/move-to-top-of-sidebar?post=32396"},{"taxonomy":"custom-layouts","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/custom-layouts?post=32396"},{"taxonomy":"exclude-from-nav","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wesleymission.org.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exclude-from-nav?post=32396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Helpful links<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
