Applying ‘dignity of risk’ principles to the provision of care for older Australians, is essential in the delivery of person centred care. The challenge for providers is to balance ‘duty of care’ while honouring the rights of the care recipient to self-determination, including to take on risk. The application of effective communication and negotiation skills when discussing ‘risk’ with care recipients ensures that the provider and their employees are also protected, while enabling the older person to continue to enjoy activities that result in quality-of-life outcomes. This interactive 2-hour workshop will clarify and explore the concept of 'Dignity of Risk'.
