It will also be useful for volunteers such as Meals on Wheels workers. A wide range of issues are covered. It also includes a "For You to Find Out" section, so that workers are aware of their organisation's policies and procedures on specific issues, such as organisation duties, money matters, confidentiality, OHS, reporting accidents and so on.
In Their Shoes - A Training Resource

A wide range of issues are raised and illustrated with case studies to encourage discussion.
