Research shows that better continuity of care across acute and primary care can significantly improve patient outcomes1. This leads to less hospitalisations, lower mortality, and higher levels of patient and carer satisfaction2.
As one of Australia’s leading in home care specialists, our innovative approach to integrated services sets the benchmark of care at home. Our Silver Learnings series is one of the ways we're partnering with clinicians and referrers to help patients receive the quality care and support they need.
About our sessions
Our team of clinical and care experts share their knowledge, experience, and connections on a vast range of topics such as wound care and palliative care.
Each of our sessions provide:
