Professional Development for Healthcare Workers + Bonus Unit

Unit 1-6 in Professional Development for Healthcare Workers

Reiki Australia has introduced a non-accredited certificate course in professional development for healthcare and wellness workers; this training was developed to ensure client safety and to give practitioners an opportunity to gain knowledge, skills and a deeper understanding of their professional responsibilities as described in the National Code of Conduct for Healthcare Workers (referred to as the National Code).Throughout Australia, the National Code is embedded in legislation and everyone who offers a health and wellness service is legally required to comply.

Many practitioners who have gained nationally accredited qualifications in the areas of Complementary and Alternative Health, Counselling and Community Services will have received training to enable them to comply with the National Code; however there are a myriad of specialised training courses whose focus is on personal development, spirituality, lifestyle, Reiki and many other healing modalities that do not include training in the skills and knowledge required to comply with the National Code.

The course: ‘Professional Development for Healthcare Workers’ fills this gap.

The knowledge and skills gained through this course will help practitioners to address the required essential knowledge and skills and will help to ensure that practitioners gain a clear understanding and appreciation of the ‘Codes’. It provides practical guidance on how to comply with the National Code of Conduct for Healthcare Workers.

This course is open to trainers, and all practitioners who wish to provide health and wellness services.

Professional Development for Healthcare Workers is owned and delivered by Reiki Australia and is not a nationally accredited course.

Units are all designed for home study. Each unit will require a minimum of around 12 hours over up to two months, in study and the completion of exercises and assignments.

A statement of attainment will be provided after completing each unit, and a Certificate in Professional Development for Healthcare Workers awarded on completion of all six units. A bonus unit, Promoting your Healthcare Business, is included at no cost, after completion of all six course units.
