Thrilled to be working on this important project funded by @StateTrustees - in collaboration with community partners in north east Victoria, we’ll be working with rural communities to support older people to plan for #agefriendly health care.

There’s no definitive answer on how well current models of telehealth are meeting the needs of rural older adults, says @RachelWinterton.
She's facilitating a workshop that aims to address the gaps and help design recommendations to improve delivery.

We are all committed to honouring John’s legacy - his vision and foresight in founding the John Richards Centre has created significant improvements for older people in rural communities, and kickstarted many careers in rural ageing research (including mine). Vale John.
Our community was deeply saddened to learn that John Richards OAM, a generous supporter of the University and people who live in rural and regional communities, died late last month.
We invite you to reflect on his life, his vision and philanthropy. now.latrobe/vale-john-richar…
Embracing my full productivity nerd - going to give the #bujo a go. At best, it’ll be a repository for lists all of the papers I fully intend to write one day but haven’t yet…
