HEALA6401 Comprehensive Assessment of the Older Adult
This unit examines the comprehensive health assessment of the older adult as part of a speciality practice which is sensitive to meeting the needs of older adults through evidence based, person centred, best practice care. This unit will provide students with the skills and knowledge required to complete a comprehensive health assessment of the older adult in accordance with the Aged Care Quality Standards (Standard 3 Personal Care and Clinical Care). Students will refine their clinical assessment skills to conduct a focused, person centred health assessment of an older adult and interpret and analyse findings to inform a person centred plan of care, implementation and evaluation of care. Students will have the opportunity to apply theory to practice during this course.
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: $1,157
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,157
* 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.
