WEBINAR: Care Finders – Supporting older patients with complex needs to access services

Wed 12th June 2024 @ 1:00 pm

GPs and Practice Nurses, Allied Health Professionals and Pharmacists caring for older patients with complex needs are invited to an update from Yourside, the organisation that is providing the Care Finder program in the Northen Sydney region.

What is care finders?
Care finders help people access aged care services and connect with other relevant supports in the community.
Some older people need extra, intensive support to access aged care services and other supports in the community.
In these situations, a care finder may be able to help.
Care finders is a free service. It exists to support vulnerable people – who have no one else who can support them – to learn about, apply for and set up support services.
