Follow safe work practices for direct client care
Safety is a universal concern that applies across all industries and roles. Following safe work practices ensures that employees are protected from harm, reduces the risk of accidents and injuries and promotes a healthy and productive working environment. In support work, it ensures that both caregivers and clients are protected from potential harm and helps in providing high-quality care, maintaining a healthy environment and respecting the rights and dignity of clients.
