I'm an exercise physiologist and a PhD student. I have a passion working with older adults, finding novel ways to make exercise fun + ⬆️ physical activity.

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

I am so grateful that I can work with older people. I am fortunate to have a job that aligns with my values, where I can help others.
One lady told me that getting old is not easy but she is not going to let it win! That's a great attitude to have in your 90's! 💪💃🤸‍♀️

As part of my PhD (investigating the impact of exercise on transition into residential care), I have been working at an aged care facility for the past 1.5 yrs. Monday is my last day, and I am feeling incredibly sad to say goodbye to the residents.

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

I love this time of year when clients give me home-made biccies 😀😀

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

How I help my clients increase physical activity and connect with their community, which is especially important for those who live alone.

How can we improve the move into residential care? If you want to learn about what others have done to help new residents, check out this Scoping Review 👇👇

I have just started to listen to this book. Any other recommendations to increase my knowledge on Parkinson's Disease?

Presenting today on behalf of our research team at #ESSA symposium in Perth. Beautiful setting at Murdoch Uni. #ECU #research

I studied with Asha at #UWA
and have followed her for several years on Instagram. She does amazing work with girls/young woman. Asha has an important message for the creators of @peppapig https://t.co/u5k9J2CLDI

I introduced 2 residents who grew up + lived in the same area of East Africa. They've lived in RAC for ~4 months but being on different floors, didn't know each other. They chatted for 45min+ plan on meeting again. Facilitating new connections makes a difference for new residents

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

Best news ever! No more masks in RAC from Monday! 😀😀😀😀😀

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

I work in RAC running group exercise classes as part of PhD research. Today the physio said 'We don't want you to leave!'. A lovely compliment 😀

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

I haven't been to the nursing home where I work for 2 weeks. I left amid a COVID outbreak. I was worried about the residents. Yesterday I returned and they were all well. I was so happy to see they were all OK 😀 Yes, I probably care too much sometimes but that's just who I am.

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

I had the most fantastic week in #Adelaide attending my first face2face conference. I met many wonderful people, attended amazing presentations + presented some of my own research. Ready to get back to data collection 😀 #AAGConf22 #ageing #connectingresearchpolicyandpractice

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

Very interesting and valuable presentations this morning by @TanyaDavison50 @MarissaDickins Julie Kelly and Yvonne Wells @gerontologyau #AAG2022 #AAGconf22

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

Very informative and well presented Dr Stephanie Garratt #AAGConf22 #AAGSECG #Adelaide #ageing #connectingresearchpolicyandpractice

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

When the #AAGConf22 starts with Sophie Thomson talking about gardening, you know it's going to be a good conference! 🌼🐝#AAGSECG #Adelaide #ageing #connectingresearchpolicyandpractice #AAGResearchTrust

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

Yesterday I was surprised to receive a gift from a conference I presented at recently 😀 Thank you @crac_ecu

[Stacey_Scott_EP @ep_scott]

This week I did a 'song and dance' with all my classes. They sang along and all had a smile on their face afterwards. Que Sera Sera 💃💃💃 https://t.co/BBYaa6Ccks

My puppy sitter has COVID, so little Frank came with me to work and my client who lost her sausage earlier this year got to have lots of puppy cuddles! One gentleman even took him for a little walk!
