What can the United Kingdom teach us about rethinking aging and social care?


In a world that's becoming more interconnected, there's an increasing focus on sharing insights and challenging one another to find innovative solutions for the future of care and reimagining what aging and social care can look like.

In this episode, Donna Duncan sits down with two inspiring voices:


  • Professor Vic Rayner OBE, CEO of the National Care Forum 
  • Dr. Donald Macaskill, CEO of Scottish Care


They discuss the evolving landscape of aging and social care in the United Kingdom. They also explore how collaboration, technology, and person-centered approaches are shaping the future of social care, and the unique lessons we can learn from the UK.


With thought-provoking insights, Vic and Donald share valuable perspectives on creating a compassionate and sustainable system that meets the needs of aging populations everywhere.


Conversations like this one are part of a global dialogue where we connect across systems, embrace technology, and push for flexible, forward-thinking approaches.
