Welcome to
Our Magazine
Our aim in producing this publication is to not only assist and inform our senior society members, but to draw attention amongst all age groups to the daily issues affecting our own parents, grandparents, friends and neighbours.
In short, we wish to acknowledge the value of our seniors and contributions they make to our community.
Australian statistics show that we have an 'ageing population'. There are more people living longer and therefore their requirements, problems, rights and expectations are finally gaining more focus. Attention should not only be drawn to the growing dependence and problems our senior community members face daily, but also to the vast experiences, talents, knowledge and wisdom they have accumulated and have to offer.
Our latest edition takes a look at better health options for seniors. We examine the growing application of Telehealth services: What is available and how do these services benefit seniors? We also look at the Activity Theory of Ageing and what it means for better health outcomes. We hope you enjoy reading our 15th edition. You can view all of our editions by following the links below.
