Primary health care is any medical service that is provided outside the four walls of a hospital, including aged care, community health, general practice, custodial, schools and many other primary health care settings. Australia's 98,000+ primary health care nurses play a critical role in disease prevention and control to keep people healthy. They provide proactive care and health promotion to keep Australians well.
Nurses, students, professionals and employers: join APNA today for unparalleled growth and support in primary health care.
As part of our commitment to supporting the next generation of nurses, we have put together the Aged Care Knowledge Hub.
The Hub provides resources, tools and support for nursing students taking the first steps towards a fulfilling career in aged care, as well as ongoing research, evidence, and knowledge to all healthcare workers in this sector.
By sharing these resources, we hope to support those new and not-so-new to aged care to understand what works and how it works, leading to high-quality care for our older Australians.
The Hub is organised into five areas of focus:
Each area is then further organised into topics to help you find what you need.
We welcome feedback. Please let us know what you think of the Aged Care Knowledge Hub and what resources you would like to see included.
The Aged Care Knowledge Hub is supported by funding from the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care under the Aged Care Nursing Clinical Placements Program.
