Local Health District CEO, Margot Mains joins us to explore how hospitals are coping with the nearly 200 older people in hospital who need to move to, or return to, residential care. Margot explains how this impacts both older people who need and deserve specialised aged care, and health care opportunities for the whole community.
Together we explore what the health district team are doing to actively address the current situation, and how the health sector is working with other sectors on long-term solutions.
