🚀 What a busy and productive week! 🚀
This past week has been a whirlwind of activity for our team with Natasha Chadwick, Greg Aleckson and Justin Chadwick busy meeting with the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care and key government representatives to discuss how our MICRO TOWN® model can support their plans for improving quality of care, quality of life, and sustainability across the sector.
We had the incredible opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions on topics spanning from residential care, CHSP/HCP, regulatory reform, to built design. Our conversations centred around our innovative model and the benefits it has for everyone who lives in, works at, and visits our community as well as the significant benefits it can provide government and the larger health system.
Our model is more than just an idea – it is a transformative approach that promises significant benefits across the board. This visit was a crucial step in demonstrating the potential of our model and the positive impact it can have on different communities nationwide, not just aged care.
📢 Call to Action: Are you passionate about the future of health and aged care like we are? We believe in the power of innovation to bring about meaningful change - but we can't do it alone - here is how you can help:
1. We invite you to reach out, connect with us and be part of our journey of change
2. Learn more about innovation and change makers in the sector, like NewDirection Care and our MICRO TOWN® model
3. Advocate for change across all levels of government. Speak to your local council, state and federal representatives as well as elected ministers. Share what you have learned and secure ongoing support for organisations like us, who are making a real change.
Together, we can make a difference. Let's continue this important conversation and work towards a brighter, healthier future for all Australians.
