S3 Ep 41Loneliness, Social Connections and Dementia with Dr. Snorri Bjorn Rafnsson
Today we're focussing on the importance of social connection and presenting two perspectives on how it can affect the health and well being of older adults.Our first conversation features Dr. Snorri Bjorn Rafnsson from the University of West London, who's research examines some of the determinants of dementia and how we might delay and stop it's onset. In this episode Snorri helps us take a closer look at the relationships between loneliness, internet usage and dementia play out and some potential new areas for exploration.In the second half of this episode we speak to Jamie McIntyre from the Australian Red Cross who co-ordinates around 50 volunteers up in Tweed Heads as they provide support to socially isolated older adults. Jamie and the team do great work in partnership with SilVR Adventures, together we've been bringing immersive virtual reality experiences to care facilities and Jamie shares a little bit with us about that experience and how the SilVR Adventures' solution is enriching the lives of older adults through social connection.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

S3 Ep 39Financial Elder Abuse and Inheritance Impatience with Luke Wright
For today's episode we're dedicating it to understanding more about financial elder abuse and how to prevent it.We're joined by Luke Wright from the Victorian State Trustees to understand a bit more about the prevalence, causes and many face of financial elder abuse and some warning signs to look out for.As Luke says in the interview, financial abuse is almost the canary in the coal mine of elder abuse - as its presence is a pretty good indicator of other types of abuse.Whatever you're doing in your work this week, we encourage you to have a think about elders around you that might be vulnerable to abuse and what you can do to prevent it - you can visit elderabuseawarenessday.org.au for more information.You can hear Daniella and Maurie’s take and thoughts about these ideas in their show Who Cares? which is released on Friday.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

S3 Ep 37The Gifts of Dementia with Judy Cornish
In today's episode we’re exploring a radically different approach to dementia care which can help people remain in their own homes for longer.Judy Cornish is the creator of the DAWN method - and she joins us for a fun and fascinating conversation about how she came into dementia care with no prior experience and developed a way to embrace the strengths and avoid weaknesses of people living with dementia. Judy’s model leverages the highly developed intuitive skills of people living with dementia and encourage carers and families to communicate in ways that don’t depend on the often-diminishing rational skills, which she explains in quite a bit more detail throughout the episode.If you want to learn more about Judy’s wonderful work after this interview which I think you will, she has two books available online The Dementia Handbook and Dementia with Dignity that you can check out.As always you can hear Daniella and Maurie’s take and thoughts about these ideas in their show Who Cares? which is released every Friday.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

S3 Ep 31The Human Rights of Older People with Emeritus Professor Andrew Byrnes
On today’s episode we’re delving into something we’ve been hearing a lot about on the show recently - human rights, and how despite our best intentions, the way we deliver care for older adults can ultimately result in infringements on their human rights.Our guest is leading the push for the recognition of the rights of older people, both in Australia and to the United Nations. Emeritus Professor Andrew Byrnes from the University of New South Wales joins us to talk about the importance of human rights, why we need a specific international treaty on the rights of older adults, and how it would positively impact carers and care recipients around the world.Andrew is a great presenter who helps to interpret this complex legal topic, into real terms for people working in the industry, particularly with reference to the findings of last year's Royal Commission.As always you can hear Daniella and Maurie’s take and thoughts about these ideas in their show Who Cares? which is released every Friday.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

S3 Ep 29Transitions in Later Life with Jeff Hamaoui
On today’s episode we’re looking at something that everybody goes through but is especially important to those in later life - periods of transition.Whether it’s kids leaving home, the loss of a loved one or when people begin to engage with aged care services, they’re usually going through some sort of transition - and understanding more about what these periods look like, and how to navigate them is helpful not just for ourselves but also for the people we care for.Helping us unpack this intricate topic is Jeff Hamaoui. Jeff, along with Chip Conley are Founding Partners of MEA, which was formerly known as the Modern Elder Academy.Jeff is currently Head of Education and with the team at MEA, helps adults in their midlife and beyond prepare for the next stage of their lives, by exploring ideas of transitions, purpose and much more - you can have a look at their work in Australia at www.meax.com.au As always you can hear Daniella and Maurie’s take and thoughts about these ideas in their show Who Cares? which is released every Friday.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

S3 Ep 28Consistent Assignment - A Better Model For All with Daniella Greenwood
Today’s episode is an interesting conversation that looks at how we staff residential care facilities, and why consistently pairing the same carers with the same residents will lead to better outcomes for all.Joining us is friend of the show and co-host of our Friday Who Cares show, Daniella Greenwood. Daniella has worked extensively in the space of consistent assignment for the last 10 years after developing and implementing the model with Arcare in 2012.She now consults with other aged care providers on why it’s a more humane and dignified model for residents, that has significant operational and financial benefits for providers. In this episode you’ll hear her explain the process of implementing the model, and the disproportionately large benefits for making the switch.**** Quick note: no WhoCares? episode this Friday but will be back next week! ****The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

Today’s episode is with Dr. Natasha Ginnivan from University of New South Wales. Natasha is a research fellow in the school of psychology at UNSW and her work focuses on cultural attitudes to ageing, stereotypes and self-perceptions.Our conversation really focussed on how our self-perceptions of our own ageing can have long term health effects, and how things like media portrayal, cultural values and intergenerational environments can reduce or exacerbate these effects.We also briefly spoke about an exciting Virtual Reality based project Natasha was part of that harnessed the immersive nature of the technology to deliver an emotionally affecting experience on the subject of dementia.As always you can hear Daniella and Maurie’s take and thoughts about these ideas in their show Who Cares? which is released every Friday.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.

S3 Ep 24Supportive Care For LGBTI Older People with Rob Hardy
Today’s episode is with Rob Hardy from LGBTIQ+ Health Australia, or LHA for short, about supporting LGBTI older adults in care, and some barriers and challenges to care that we may not have thought.LHA are the peak body focusing on health services for LGBTIQ+ Australians and they tackle areas like mental health, disability, palliative and also their aged care project Silver Rainbow, which you can find out more about on their website: https://www.lgbtiqhealth.org.au/ This can be an uncomfortable topic for some people, and Rob does a great job of explaining what all the letters mean, what are some common experiences for LGBTI people and how we can be sensitive and supportive of people’s gender and sexuality even if it all feels a bit unfamiliar.As always you can hear Daniella and Maurie’s take and thoughts about these ideas in their show Who Cares? which is released every Friday.The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast is brought to you by SilVR Adventures ⬇️ 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻, 𝗦𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 ⬇️🍏 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ace-aged-care-enrichment/id1528261777🟢 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4wk2d6NjlbHg8Eid35TNB2❤️ iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ace-aged-care-enrichment-77188643/💙 Listen Online: https://silvradventures.com.au/podcast/SilVR Adventures - Meaningful virtual reality experiences and activities for older adults to improve mental well-being.
