Connecting the pieces is an Eastern Sector Development Team podcast focused on connecting, supporting and promoting good diversity, wellness and reablement approaches.
Building on the success of the connecting the pieces resource and film, this podcast will further advance the listeners understanding of the interconnected relationship between diversity and wellness.
It will provide insights and good practice on diversity, wellness and reablement from policy through to practice and evaluation. We promote an intersectional approach to service delivery that recognises and responds to consumers diversity, their preferences, lived experiences and supports them to be empowered and active participants in their care.
Hearing from people working across the aged care sector, our podcasts will explore person-centred care through a wellness and reablement model that is intrinsically aligned to progressive and inclusive diversity practice.

Episode 2
Inclusive and responsive care planning underpins community aged care service delivery. It helps the service provider to learn who the client is, what's important to them and what they want to achieve to live as independently as possible. With the onset of COVID-19 and the suspension of face-to-face service delivery, good care planning processes have enabled service providers to respond to to the identified needs of their clients during this difficult time. With the return of face-to-face service delivery eminent, care planning plays an equally important role in understanding what has changed for clients and what they want and need from services. Vicki Bayly, Social Support Manage from BASScare shares their approach to care planning and how they managed the process.
