Your Aged Care Compass

In this thought-provoking episode, pharmacist Jenny Kirschner shares her personal experience of loneliness and the powerful benefits of addressing social isolation via pharmacy practice. As founder of PALS (Pharmacy Addressing Loneliness and Social Isolation), Jenny is leading an international initiative to embed social health as a core part of pharmaceutical care.

Jenny highlights the profound health impacts of loneliness and shares how pharmacists are uniquely placed to support their clients, through everyday moments of connection. From simple gestures like a warm greeting to structured social prescribing, Jenny illustrates how pharmacists and others can play a vital role in reducing loneliness, especially among older Australians.

In this episode:

• Discussing loneliness can be uncomfortable at first
• Loneliness looks and feels different for everyone
• Feeling lonely is not a mental health issue, it’s an emotion caused by your social needs not being met
• Loneliness is common and affects people of all ages
• Feeling lonely affects physical, mental and cognitive health
• In Australia, loneliness is the second highest risk factor for suicide
• The positive effects of social connection are profound
• Pharmacists see patients more often than many other health professionals, making them key players in social health
• The trusted relationships that pharmacists build with their patients allow them to be uniquely placed to address loneliness
• Social prescribing helps connect patients with meaningful activities and community supports
• Jenny developed the pharmacist training program on loneliness, a world first
• Simple actions you can offer an older person who might be lonely

Those who will be Support at Home consumers have concerns about this new program. This week Coral sits down with two remarkable women, Danijela Hlis and Hanna Law, aged care recipients, carers, and advocates. From lived experiences, they bring powerful insights to the looming changes in Australia’s aged care system. Their stories are real and filled with wisdom.

As Australia inches toward the rollout of Support at Home (SaH) in November, Danijela and Hanna discuss the fears, frustrations, and hopes from within their communities. Today’s episode invites listeners to consider the effects Support at Home will have on older Australians.

In this episode:

• Two advocates share lived insights as home care package recipients and carers
• Many older people remain unaware of aged care options until a crisis hits
• CALD communities face extra barriers
• Systemic failures in cultural training and interpreter use lead to a lack of respectful care
•  Family carers, especially CALD women, feel neglected and unsupported by the system
• Co-contributions are a major concern, with costs forcing trade-offs between showers, food, and cleaning
• Some care recipients say affordability means they’ll opt out of their packages, risking premature entry into aged care
• Disparities between aged care and NDIS raise equity concerns
• Assistive technology and home modification caps ($15,000) deemed unrealistic
• Providers, consumers, advocates, and even Ministers lack clarity on core details of SaH
• Clear, culturally appropriate information remains a missing piece in the Support at Home rollout.
• Peak advocacy groups are perceived as disconnected from grassroots realities
• Consider policy co-design from people with lived experience
• Personal stories show the shortfalls in dignified care
• Danijela and Hanna call for reforms grounded in human rights, dignity and respect
