Stronger Hearts Ambassador Training

Welcome to the Stronger Hearts Ambassador Training

Our online training modules train Ambassadors to implement Stronger Hearts Exercise Program within your Aged Care Community. These include: Retirement Villages, Aged Day Centres, Residential Aged Care Facilities, or any other intentional gathering of Seniors who are meeting to engage in regular exercise. The training is self-paced and forms part of our competency framework for accredited Ambassadors, ensuring appropriate scope of practice is maintained for insurance coverage. Ambassadors and their Line Managers can have peace of mind knowing that activity can be increased effectively without risk of litigation.

Stronger Hearts has been designed to supplement any existing exercise strategy already in place within your community. As it is exclusively web-based, trained Ambassadors may integrate the classes at a level and frequency of their choosing. Our training equips Ambassadors to utilise the Stronger Hearts portal at each stage of exercise programming – whether you are wanting to start a new program, update an existing one, or looking to promote exercise uptake and adherence. Our Ambassadors come from a variety of disciplines. Whether you work as a Physiotherapist, Exercise Physiologist, Nurse, Diversional Therapist, Activity Officer, or Leisure and Lifestyle Coordinator – this is a program that you can use as a tool in your exercise prescription arsenal.
