It was a real honour to present a session on #palliativecare and #bereavement at #ACCPANC24 and to share how I think #carehome and #homecare can learn to use the insights of Scotland’s #Gaelic and #Hebridean cultures.

We need to transform the way we commission #homecare - in some sense this is a return to the essence of support and care - doing with not for. It’s cost effective and people-positive! And staff seem to like it according to Danish research. #agedcare

Interesting and insightful session on #reablement with the first speaker Prof @TineRostgaard from Roskilde University in Denmark. She emphasises the Danish approach to #homecare and the urgent need with demographic change to re conceive care at home esp with changes to families.
