Do you employ Support workers?

Then Health Ed Trust, producers of the ACE (Aged Care Education) programmes, can provide education programmes for your organisation. Our present subscribers include residential care facilities, retirement villages, private hospitals, nursing bureaus and home support.     

Health Ed Trust programmes are:
  • Flexible: can be taught in many ways
  • Innovative: hands on information in a user friendly format
  • Accessible: can be used in any location in New Zealand
  • Affordable: Pay for the programme once and use the materials as many times as you need. If a staff member resigns the replacement caregiver can start the programme at no $ cost.
  • Formal: They meet DHB ARRC Contract orientation and NZQA qualification requirements.

Health Ed Trust programmes provide:
  • Resources: Excellent resources provided with programmes, the research has been done! Just open up the Manuals and workbooks and start. Very little preparation time required. DVD’s (or videos), assessments - even the answers are supplied.
  • Support: Information and teaching resources for Assessors come with each topic. Telephone support is also available from knowledgeable, friendly staff during office hours.            
All Health Ed Trust courses are NZQA approved and carry unit standards. When ACE programmes have been completed, the student has also qualified for the National Certificate In Support of the Older Person or the new qualification The National Certificates in Community Support Services.  (Level 3)

Throughout New Zealand the ACE programme has become the benchmark for many Managers/Owners when employing staff. Many residential care facilities include completion of the ACE programme as part of a Support Workers Employment Agreement.

Health Ed Trust’s programmes are very widely accepted. Currently they are used in over 70% of the facilities throughout New Zealand. Over 15,000 students have completed at least one programme and many more are currently working on them.

Health Ed Trust  is the preferred supplier of education programmes for HealthCare Providers NZ.

“We have found the ACE programme the best yet education programme for caregivers, especially as it can be related to their day to day caring experiences. The carer’s self esteem, skills and knowledge base as well as job satisfaction, all benefit from taking this programme.”
