Listening to the NSW health minister ⁦@RyanPark_Keira⁩ talk about efforts to invest in the west!

Listening to Pat Sparrow ⁦⁦@agedsupporter⁩ talk at ⁦@COTAAustralia⁩ conference in Sydney. Important to understand service participants point of view.

@ACSANational day 2 and listening to @annabelcrabb and Libby Lyons. Interesting statement"if we got more men into aged care, wages would go up!".

At the @ACSANational 2022 summit. Important discussion on how to move forward. Sad that neither side of politics would front up to speak to the sector!

⛈️ Thunderstorm forecast for Sunday: severe thunderstorms are likely in the southern interior, and possible through southern and western #QLD, with a chance of damaging winds, heavy rainfall, and large hail. Today's warnings: bom.gov.au/qld/warnings/

We are urging people across #Victoria to be prepared for severe weather at the end of the week. Heavy #rain & gusty winds may develop. Risk of #flooding & some wind damage. Latest forecasts: ow.ly/rht350GIYOk

Melbourne will be locked up for another month. When Victoria reaches 70% fully vaccinated, Andrews will not give Victorians anything like the freedoms NSW is enjoying today.

People are just so angry in Melbourne. A cab driver just drove through a pedestrian crossing where I was crossing with pram. I held my hands up as if to say ‘What the?’ He stuck his finger up & yelled ‘stupid c&$t’. I came home and put my pj’s back on and cried. It’s too much.

@edward_a_hill @FrontNeurosci @WickingDementia @ABindoff @janealty1 @JamesCVickers A fascinating piece of work helping us unpack the role of education and cognitive performance.

@k_eagar @anmf_federal @AHSRI_UOW @CHSD_UOW Health Department confirmed yesterday that latest aged care workforce survey has found that proportion of casual workers in residential care is actually lower than Australian average for all industries.

Thinking of VIC & SA as they endure more lock downs.....

Anyone else frustrated at how much football is contributing to the spread of COVID?

Time to stop the politics and get the vaccination done. Doesn't matter who does it!!!!

Big news: I'm taking part the Vinnies CEO Sleepout to raise funds for people experiencing homelessness. Support me today to help thousands of Australians in need. ceosleepout.org.au/s/11732/50670/t

@albericie @rodhunt Appauling that only 23,000 home care packages announced when more than 100,000 on the waiting list. A political stunt to hold off until what they already know will be in the royal commission final report

My short take on #Budget2020 is that the government isn't doing much that looks innovative. Money for construction sector & hand outs galore. Aged care & child care are crying out for support. Both would hugely assist women who do most of the caring for both elderly & children

#Budget2020 23,000 home care packages when there's 100,000 on the waiting list! Poor show #morrisongovernmet

Proud to be a part of this opportunity. A proud resident of Glenview sharing his wisdom for the next generations of doctors twitter.com/PHEMCandSSEM/s…

COVID has sharpened focus on being better at caring for our (vulnerable) WISE! older community members. #GEMSEM2021 - a multidisciplinary conversation on improving the care of our injured older community. @acemonline @MyaCubitt @oflaherty_lucy
