Australia's life expectancy is now one of the highest in the world
the changing shape of our population means we need to re-assess how health care
and health services are delivered. Juniper,
and Curtin University, are leading the way in this revolution. We've been
collaborating in the past two years taking a pioneering inter-professional approach to
health care
we're training a new generation of health care professionals
in a team based approach, to support
primary-care to provide the best out comes for residents
this model is currently being pioneered, here
at our Annesley Aged Care facility.
At Annesley we provide the holistic approach to caring for elderly residents
with chronic conditions such as dementia, heart disease and arthritis.
By providing an inter-professional approach residents receive a comprehensive
assessment from a range of student healthcare professionals
including nurses, physiotherapists and occupational therapist like myself.
I love seeing the students from Curtin,
they're friendly and enthusiastic.
They have helped me to keep my mind and body active.
At Curtin, we are working together with our industry partners, such as
Juniper, to re-assess and educate our students in a different way
to meet the changing needs in health Care.
