22.01.2022 What a great idea

22.01.2022 #BestOf2018 Those who choose to work in aged care deserve our praise and respect, but unfortunately this is not what a lot of aged care workers are experiencing, and it’s beginning to take its toll.

13.01.2022 I’ve been quiet on fb for a while but this is something worth pondering: What is residential aged care? Is it a "home" or is it a "health facility"?... Some interesting things to consider: Residential Aged Care is expected to: * provide a homelike environment * provide a huge range of choice not found anywhere else in the health system * cater for all cultural, religious and personal preferences * provide best practice clinical care across the full spectrum of chronic and sub-acute care including rehabilitation Yet: * The sector is not funded in line with public healthcare. * The sector is not staffed in line with public healthcare. * The sector has progressively been denuded of specialist clinical expertise which has serious implications for clinical assessment and care delivery. * And as a result, the sector has accepted that less clinically rigorous practices such as the administration of medications or wound care by largely under-skilled staff is acceptable because the appropriate alternatives are not affordable.

13.01.2022 Please read: Aged Care Royal Commission (ACRC) Currently there are only 800 submissions to the ACRC.... 800 out of 25 million ppl who care enough to want to improve our aged care system. This is our opportunity to get this system right....please don’t be complacent Details of how to make a submission are in the photo attached. Do it for yourself, if not for others.
