This topic is incredibly relevant to social workers as the ageing population is rapidly growing, and the integration of technology can significantly enhance the care and support provided. Understanding the technological landscape is crucial for modern social work practices in aged care.
Learning more about technology's role in aged care will empower social workers to implement innovative solutions that promote independence, safety, and social connectivity for older adults. This knowledge is essential for improving both the effectiveness of social work interventions and the quality of life of the clients served.
This webinar will explore the transformative potential of telehealth, smart home devices, and online platforms in enhancing aged care. Participants will learn about the benefits of these technologies for mental health and social work, discuss the associated challenges, and examine practical strategies for integrating these technologies into their practice. This seminar aims to equip social workers with the skills necessary to navigate the increasingly digital landscape of aged care.
Who should register?
This webinar is tailored for social workers across all levels of experience, particularly those working with older adults in various settings, including residential care, community services, and private practices. It is ideal for practitioners looking to enhance their technological literacy and integrate new tools into their practice. Additionally, social work managers and policymakers who are involved in designing care protocols or training programs will find this seminar highly beneficial.
