Thank you Penny,

A great topic and great suggestion.

To note: Perri is presenting this month in the COP webinar series on just this topic:

Wednesday 18 June 2025, 2.00PM AEST Speaker: Perri Waddell, Gerontology Nurse, Aged Care Manager and ACIPC Facilitator

IPC Train the Trainer – education skills
The Aged Care IPC Lead (or person responsible for IPC) has a range of responsibilities as determined by the ACQCS. Providing ongoing assessment of staff capability and education is a core function of the role. There is a gap between knowledge gained from completing an IPC course and teaching ability. This presentation explores ways to train the trainer by giving IPC Leads (or person responsible for IPC) some training tools to sustainably embed and advance IPC in aged care.
