A 2023 Employing and Retaining Older Workers Survey found one in six Australian organisations will not consider hiring people aged 65 , and only a quarter are open to the idea. The gatekeepers? #HumanResources professionals. @sarahMB_Melb #ageism humanrights.gov.au/about/new…

We have the people, the money, the knowledge needed to mobilise and prevent a catastrophe. What is missing? Is it grim and horrific pictures of coffins lined up in our street? Aged care staff need our support.

It doesn’t take much effort to get people smiling and create positive impact. An iPad ,WiFi, Facetime and a will to make a difference, allows Rachelle to assist Shirley and her family spend some quality time together - and the smiles are pretty damn contagious! This is aged care!

Yesterday we buried a lovely woman. Due to #Covid19 there was no wake & our community couldn’t enter the church.
But the entire parish came out & lined the 2km road to graveyard to say goodbye to Betty Ryan.

Gov’t decision to focus on tax cuts & bigger surplus means it has missed the opportunity to meet the needs of the 120,000 older Australians on the #homecare wait list and provide sustainable res care funding to cover rising costs.

Some sections of the media have erroneously reported that industry response to the @AgedCareRC has been low. In fact, all providers outside the top 100 (about 1,900) have until 8 February to respond. #RoyalCommission. @abcnews
