Outraged. OT’s are highly qualified mental health professionals with a long history of working with people with eating disorders. Thanks @Bfoundation for your support

[OTA @otaust]

The SMH published ill-informed comments around the clinical support of those experiencing severe eating disorders. In response OTA distributed this media release to all major news outlets, defending the valuable role of OTs within multi-disciplinary teams: https://t.co/FJgqk69vAW

Sean Rooney, CEO of @LASANational, tells #HealthMetrics2019 that one single failure of #agedcare is one too many & indicates providers must do better, but equally the system must do better where it is failing such as the current wait times for a home care package

Members of the #agedcare workforce say they love what they do, but they are underpaid, under valued & under pressure, Sean Rooney tells #HealthMetrics2019

Senator Malarndirri McCarthy shining a bright light on what she describes as the ‘mess’ of indigenous housing ‘solutions’. An inspirational indigenous woman who has the knowledge and vision to lead a change. Our government and industry need to listen. #NHCDarwin

1.2 million Australians live in share accommodation, with increasing numbers of people over 65 sharing homes. This is potentially hiding the percentage of older Australians who may be in a situation of housing stress. #NHCDarwin
