Work performed requires a range of well developed skills where some discretion and judgment is required and individuals will take responsibility for their own outputs
Allied Health Assistants operate within the scope of their defined roles and responsibilities and under supervision of an Allied Health Professional
For training and assessment pathways, experience in workplace application of the skills and knowledge identified in this competency unit should be provided as required to support allied health professions
This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to work with clients, their carers and other members of a multi-disciplinary team, where appropriate, to provide and fit assistive devices to meet individual client needs
This will include confirmation of the suitability of the prescription, suitability of fit and operation and the capacity or social interaction of the client which may include use of the assistive devices
You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
