Ventilator Competency Assessment
An editable NDIS ventilator competency assessment for checking that a support worker can safely deliver ventilator management for a specific participant. A Registered Nurse or Respiratory Clinician conducts it initially, annually, after changed needs or after a break of 3 or more months.
What is inside:
- Worker, participant, assessor and delegation details, with AHPRA numbers and assessment type
- Knowledge assessment: ventilation types, prescribed settings, alarms, failure response, circuit care and signs of deterioration
- Understanding that workers must never adjust settings or alarm limits
- Observed skills: equipment checks, connection, simulated alarms, water trap draining and humidifier water change
- Bag-valve-mask ventilation in simulation and assessing the participant before the machine
- Outcome, development areas, action plan and reassessment dates
- Signatures from the assessor, worker and manager
Good to know: the worker must be rated satisfactory on every item before working independently, and delegation is issued only once competency is confirmed.
- Reviewed against the current NDIS Rules, Practice Standards and Commission guidance
- Editable DOCX with a placeholder legend, so you enter your details once
- Instant download
