New Online NDIS Restrictive Practices Training Course Available Now

 


We’re excited to announce the launch of our new online NDIS Restrictive Practices Training Course, specifically designed for employees, contractors, and volunteers working in healthcare, aged care, and disability services. This course is essential for anyone who may encounter restrictive practices in their role, helping them understand the ethical, legal, and practical implications of using these methods in care settings.

What Are NDIS Restrictive Practices?

Restrictive practices refer to measures or interventions that limit an individual’s freedom of movement or access to certain liberties. While often used in healthcare and disability care environments to ensure safety, they are controversial and heavily regulated due to their impact on an individual’s rights and dignity.

The goal is to always use restrictive practices only as a last resort, ensuring they are applied in the least restrictive manner possible while maintaining the safety of the individual and others around them.

Why Is This Training Important?

Our NDIS Restrictive Practices Training Course equips staff with the knowledge and tools to use restrictive practices appropriately. It ensures that restrictive practices are applied correctly and ethically while promoting safer and more effective alternatives. This is not just a legal requirement but also a critical part of maintaining a respectful and ethical approach to care.

Course Details

This online course covers several key topics:

  • What restrictive practices are and why they are important
  • Types of restrictive practices and when they may be necessary
  • Potential risks and complications associated with restrictive practices
  • Ethical guidelines for the use of restrictive practices
  • Alternatives to restrictive practices to minimise their use

The course is designed to be quick, engaging, and informative, taking approximately 15 minutes to complete. It is available through the Sentrient online compliance system or integrated with your existing learning management system (LMS), making it easy to deploy across your organisation.

Who Should Take This Course?

This training is ideal for employees, contractors, and volunteers working in any of the following areas:

  • Healthcare

Understanding restrictive practices’ ethical and practical considerations will benefit anyone involved in providing care or support for individuals in these settings.
