TriCare have found that when families come to them looking for aged care for their loved one, they make contact because of a significant health event affecting someone they love and care about. When they make that call they don’t expect that they will end up having to become a ‘quasi’ social worker, case manager and financial advisor all rolled into one. To add to the burden, decisions always seem to need to be made quickly to secure the bed or to respond to a hospital pushing for discharge.
The Australian summer is notoriously harsh, with higher temperatures posing a greater threat to the health and wellbeing of seniors in particular. This is often due to older adults being more likely to have a medical condition or use prescription medications that can impact the body’s ability to control temperature.
BaptistCare Griffith has received a Palliative Care Champion award from Clare Holland House in recognition of their commitment to supporting residents to live well and manage their end of life needs.
The Australian Government’s commitment to aged care services for senior Australians living in rural and remote areas has been boosted by more than $3 million.
