Ventilator Support Management is a one day refresher for support workers and carers who assist NDIS participants who rely on a ventilator at home or in the community. The course covers the basics of assisted ventilation, common circuit components, and the everyday checks that keep participants breathing safely while living an active life.

You will revisit equipment safety, alarm response, suctioning under delegation, and the partnership with respiratory clinicians that guides every shift. Trainers walk through common emergencies such as power loss, circuit disconnect, and breathing changes so you can respond calmly. By the end of the day you will feel prepared to deliver high quality ventilator support, document each shift clearly, and protect the participant's dignity at all times.

Assessment is competency based and runs across the day. You will complete short written checks on assisted breathing and infection control, then demonstrate equipment checks, alarm response, and delegated suctioning on a clinical mannequin. A final emergency scenario confirms your ability to manage power loss or a circuit disconnect safely.
