23.01.2022 Diversicare are excited to announce the launch of Diversicare's Multicultural Advisory Service mobile app. The app aims to make training requests and access to our resources more accessible for you and your staff. It provides you with a deeper understanding of CALD consumers and the wider community. Additionally, after such a wide recognition and appreciation for the Little Book of Cultural Tips, we have developed a 360-degree tour of a house visit, showing you all the tips ...in action during the visit. We hope you enjoy this visual representation and gain much value from it, just as the booklet has provided. The app is easy to download. If you have a smartphone, please navigate to the Google Play Store and search Diversicare MAS. If you have an iPhone, please navigate to the App Store and search Diversicare MAS. Follow your standard download procedure, and once installed, you will find it amongst your other apps on your phone. Please note, the resource is free for use to everyone; there is a fee for the cross-cultural workshop for non-aged care providers. We are in the early days of the app so any feedback would be much appreciated.

23.01.2022 "Diversicare's monthly information session at Inala received a surprise visit from Anthony Albanese who was keen to hear from Vietnamese seniors. Albanese took lots of selfies with members of the Vietnamese community and was very impressed by Diversicare's client Ms No, who is 103 years young!" #eccq

22.01.2022 It's been a wonderful experience working with Shuang and her team at the University of Queensland on this project to research and understand the best approaches to help older people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds to adjust socially in Australia, and reduce social isolation. Our thanks go to all our wonderful visitors and carers at our respite centre West End Connect for their time and input.
