Have done my 1st assessment and am currently on my second.

I am stumped on the question; "Give two strategies that you would use to promote the choices of an older person to help maintain their personal identity".
and "What sources of referral are available to you to support the older person regarding their emotional, sexual and psychosocial needs?"

If anyone could give me some tips, not the answers, that'd be great.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nikkie.
When I doing my cert 3 google was my best friend.Also government health and local community websites were so helpful .The Australian Carer by Helen Croft was also my Bible.
Check out the gov health site first as reference books can be expensive.

Have written down the websites and am finding them very useful.

Hi gizjiz

I took what you said about the "Australian Carer by Helen Croft" and looked into it and have purchased my own copy.
Totally agree with you, it has everything you need for research and queries.

Thank you so much for your help. :)
