HCAGE6033 ASSESSING COMPLEXITY IN AGED CARE
This third course in the six course Aged Care sequence advances the core competencies of the specialist nurse in aged care practice in undertaking holistic clinical assessment of elderly patients and their families. It builds on previously developed propositional knowledge and advanced practice craft knowledge. Students will either be employed in an aged care practice context, or will arrange to take a clinical practicum in an aged care setting while undertaking this course. A practicum will be a minimum of one day per week over a ten week period, or two weeks toward the middle of the teaching period.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $578
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $578
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
