This National Carers Week, we recognise, celebrate and raise awareness for the 3 million Australians who provide unpaid care and support to a family member or friend. Carers provide essential support to people living with disability, chronic illness or health conditions, including those in our cystic fibrosis community. Their dedication, compassion and resilience strengthen families, communities and the nation as a whole.

At Trusted Care, we recognise the important role support workers play in working alongside carers, families and individuals. For many support workers, their professional inspiration begins with firsthand experience as a carer for a family member or friend, giving them practical experience and an empathetic approach to supporting their clients.

Support workers can help fill the gaps and take some of the load off unpaid carers, providing practical assistance, supporting independence and giving carers valuable time to rest, work, attend appointments or simply look after themselves.

Anyone, at any time, can become a carer. National Carers Week is an opportunity to raise awareness among all Australians about the diversity of carers and the important roles they play.

Let’s recognise the contribution of carers and make sure they have the support they need, too.

Did you know that we offer complimentary Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training? For support workers, mental health first aid is an important skill. You may be one of the people that a client feels most comfortable talking to, or the first to notice changes in their mood, behaviour or wellbeing.

For people living with cystic fibrosis, the ongoing demands of a lifelong condition can bring unique mental health challenges. Support workers, carers and family members can play an important role in recognising when someone may be struggling and helping them access appropriate support.

Our Mental Health First Aid training can equip you with the knowledge, confidence, and practical skills to recognise signs of mental health problems, provide initial support, and connect someone with appropriate help. This is a unique opportunity to gain nationally accredited practical training to connect, participate, and support mental health in your own life, family, and community.

Expressions of Interest are now open for our upcoming face-to-face course in Canberra and online delivery for all members, family, and CF carers.

Mental health first aid is complementary for all members of Cystic Fibrosis Queensland, Cystic Fibrosis ACT, Trusted Care support staff & clients, and Cystic Fibrosis healthcare workers attached to a cystic fibrosis clinic.

This Queensland Mental Health Week, let’s equip the people who support others every day with the skills to recognise, respond and connect people with help.'

As of today, October 1 2026, the Thriving Kids program begins rolling out in Australia.

Thriving Kids is designed to provide support for children aged eight and under with developmental delay or autism and low to moderate support needs, through services in places children already live, learn and play – including early childhood settings, schools, health services and community spaces.

Importantly, children are not being removed from the NDIS today. Changes to NDIS eligibility are not scheduled to begin until January 2028.

However, questions remain about how Thriving Kids will operate across Australia. In particular, Queensland has not yet signed on to the program, meaning there is uncertainty about how targeted supports will be delivered for Queensland families.

For support workers, staying informed about these changes will be important as the disability support landscape evolves. Understanding new pathways and services can help us better support children, families and carers to navigate the system.

Whether you’re supporting a friend, family member, colleague or community member, you can learn the skills to make a difference. Trusted Care is proud to offer a nationally accredited, evidence-based training program designed to help you recognise, understand and respond to mental health challenges.
Most people understand the importance of physical first aid. However, when someone is experiencing a mental health problem or crisis, many of us are far less confident about what to say, what to do, or where to direct them for help. Mental Health First Aid fills this gap.
