It means that:\nallied health professionals (AHPs) can complete more complex work, working to the full extent of their scope of practice\nAHAs can use all of their skills and scope of practice across allied health disciplines.\nThese clinicians’ checklists can help you identify if AHA roles are being used as effectively as possible.\nThe checklists are for both AHPs and AHAs working in the health, aged care or disability sectors. You may be an AHA working as an employee or contractor. Or you may be an AHP working with or supervising AHAs. The AHAs may be employed by you, employed by your workplace or contracted to work with you.\nThe first checklist is for AHAs to assess their own role. The second is for AHPs to consider how they work with AHAs.\nAssess your practice against the indicators in the checklist. Use this to identify areas for development to ensure best use of AHAs. The checklists also include some examples and resources to help you.\n\u000f\nInstructions\nThe checklists can be completed electronically or printed and filled in by hand.\nYou can complete it yourself, with your AHP or AHA colleagues or with a group of AHAs or AHPs.\nRate yourself against the indicators using the 5-point scoring system outlined in \u0013 REF _Ref144468783 \\h  \\* MERGEFORMAT \u0014Table 1\u0015.\nEach indicator includes examples. Also consider anything relevant to your workplace that is not listed.\nTable \u0013SEQ Table \\* ARABIC\u00141\u0015: Scoring options\nBased on your ratings, summarise your strengths and areas for further development in the learning plan. You can complete the learning plan yourself of with your AHP or AHA colleagues.\nThen outline an action plan with specific activities or changes to be made.\nYou can add more than 3 areas to the plan. To add a new row, go to the last table cell and select the Tab key.\nThe checklists can be used as part of:\nan early graduate program\nonboarding\nperformance appraisal\nworkload and workforce planning\nreflective practice activities.\nAllied health assistant checklist\nPersonal assessment\nMy details\nProfessional relationships\nNote: Peak bodies are defined here as AHP registration and membership organisations\n\u000f\nSupervision and delegation\n\u000f\nTraining and development\nNote: Peak bodies are defined here as AHP registration and membership organisations\n\u000f\nAllied health assistant learning plan\nBased on your assessment, identify your areas of strength and opportunities for more development.
