Workers are the heart and soul of aged care. It's critical we upskill our workforce, improve pay and make aged care a more attractive career path. There’s much work to be done with Government and the sector to make it happen. #careaboutagedcare #auspol #agedcare #eldercare

“I think it’s incorrect to say [the vaccine rollout] is not a race. It’s a race to save lives. Given that we waited, I would have expected a far better rollout ... and far greater engagement with the aged care sector.” – Professor Joseph Ibrahim, geriatrician #abc730

Really suffering in NSW from a late lockdown. Wouldn’t be in this situation if it had happened when other states would have fired off. Peak not happened yet, unlinked cases out there spreading, and it’s in health care which can be a nightmare.

Last month there were only four Wiggles. Now there are eight. At this rate of exponential growth the majority of the earth’s population will be Wiggles by February 2024. We must act now to flatten the curve.

All consumers of health care take note. One of the simplest safety measures in hospital is to have someone sitting with you who’s not afraid to sing out.
