Thank you to our awesome volunteers Michelle and Ash who have helped to put together online training for new befrienders in our study of depression in nursing home residents @befriendas
@LASANational I am excited to be speaking at the upcoming LASA Congress on “the third layer - supporting volunteers supporting residents with depression, anxiety and loneliness in residential aged care” #befriendas
It's International Day of Friendships! We're thinking of everyone across Melbourne especially those in aged care. Hoping our #befrienders & residents will be reunited soon.
