understanding Australia's aged care system to support older loved ones at home

An insiders guide to Australias aged care system with a specific focus on the aged care programs designed to support older people at home, My Parents Are Ageing, What The Heck Do I Do? shows people how the aged care system works, enabling them to get timely and appropriate outcomes to keep older loved ones at home. Australias aged care system is so complex and confusing that it creates barriers to people seeking the support needed to keep older loved ones at home. In My Parents Are Ageing, What The Heck Do I Do?, industry expert Coral Wilkinson explains how the system works in simple language, using real stories to portray how things have gone wrong for people and what can be done to make those situations right. Coral shows readers how to initiate a sensitive and compassionate discussion with older loved ones, about accepting formal support at home and teaches them about the different aspects of aged care assessment equipping them with the knowledge on how to choose a home care package provider that is right for their needs
