Join us this month for a conversation with Dr Craig Sinclair (Senior Research Fellow) and Theresa Flavin (Lived Experience Consultant) from the University of NSW, for a discussion on supported decision making in aged care.

Our monthly Community of Practice 1-hour workshops offer member organisations a quality professional peer-to-peer development event. Each workshop combines the sharing of best practices, new approaches and innovations by a guest presenter and the opportunity for Q&A and small group discussions.
