Not-for-profit provider Uniting AgeWell has partnered with La Trobe University to develop the National Mental Health Webinar Series to improve mental health care for people living in residential aged care.
The Herd Intergenerational Learning Centre is being built alongside the Uniting AgeWell Andrew Kerr Care facility at Mornington in Victoria to offer daily interactions between children and seniors.
The Productivity Commission should be tasked with deciding how to find the extra $7 billion to $15 billion a year needed to fix the aged care system, advocates say.
