We’re not doing enough for Australia’s seriously mentally ill
Despite Australia’s recent elevation to the top five world health systems, we still have significant inequity in the medical and social care available for those with serious mental illnesses, especially for those living in regional Australia.
Age is more than just a number
With people over the age of 65 being the fastest-growing age group in the world, we need to think and act differently now if we are to better meet the health needs of our ageing population
Providing choice for end-of-life care
There is no “right” place to die, and of course we do not always get the opportunity to decide where we die. But when given the choice, approximately 70% of Australians want to die in their homes – yet only about 14% do.
