23.01.2022 "It is a fundamental human right that all people have access to the treatment and expertise provided by acute care hospital-type services. This means the right for every one of us, regardless of our age or where we reside, to have access to the same level and quality of healthcare, and to be involved in decisions about our care. This of course includes people residing in residential aged care homes" Professor Christine Stirling, President AAG
19.01.2022 As part of our first Animal Appreciation Week, today we are celebrating International Cat Day (8 August). Jason’s mum Hendrika, who lives with both Alzheimer’s ...disease and vascular dementia, maintains a degree of independence living in her granny flat with her much loved cat. This is Hailey. Or Deli. Or Soefy. Her name varies every day, and we kinda like it that way. She's a wonderful companion pet for my mum, Hendrika. She's a house cat and never ventures outside, a good home isolation buddy for Mum. She's more than just a pet; she's a great passive listener, a seat warmer and little bundle of affection during those quieter moments in the day. Her presence in our home makes Mum feel safe and less alone. Having a pet has made a significant difference to Mum's ability to continue her matriarchal role she lived for so many years.... but rather than having a house with her own children and husband to rule, she now has Hailey! This week we are sharing stories from Dementia Australia Dementia Advocates about the impact that their pets and assistance animals have had on their lives. How does your pet have a positive impact on your life? Let us know in the comments!

05.01.2022 Two recent studies and analyses published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, a scientific journal of the American Heart Association, suggest y...our furry friend may help you do better after a heart attack or stroke and may help you live a longer, better life. The studies found that, overall, dog owners tend to live longer than non-owners. And they often recover better from major health events such as heart attack or stroke, especially if they live alone. Dog parents can also feel a greater sense of well-being due to the boosted production of happy hormones like oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine, lowering stress levels, easing depression, and decreasing feelings of loneliness.
