OVERVIEW:
The National Integrated Seniors Housing Conference is a boutique event for Retirement Village operators across Australia. The program content discusses the opportunities for operators to deliver additional services to residents including care as they age in place.
The characterisation of Retirement Villages is evolving and demand for additional services that support not only current lifestyle choices but the ability to meet needs in to the future is an important factor for residents and their families.
Retirement living and seniors housing has undergone unprecedented change and reform in recent times with most states around Australia implementing reviews and/or legislative changes to their respective Acts. Home care providers are now recognising that the most effective and efficient delivery of care and services is into a retirement community. The LASA National Integrated Seniors Housing Conference 2021 is certain to challenge your thinking and expand your knowledge beyond conventional operational models and ask you to consider a new approach to integrated age service delivery in seniors housing.
