As Young confides, “We are really keen to expand our rehabilitation model within the aged-care sector to make it far more individualised, rather than a cookie cutter approach. The way I explained this to the team is, just because you live in a residential aged care setting, it shouldn’t limit your ability to access the services that you need as an individual. I think residential care has suffered from a cookie cutter approach for every single person for a variety of different reasons. But the end result is that everyone gets the same thing. And in society, that’s not normal. We as non- residential aged care residents get access to whatever services we need in a timely manner. And that should be the case for residents living in an aged care home, as well.” “We are going to, hopefully, in the not too distant future, start looking into the integration of some artificial intelligence into our organisation, as well as data capture, to really start to (as per our core value) innovate, with regards to the really smart tech that’s on the market that can be integrated into healthcare,” Young says. Being able to offer new technology is especially important in Concentric’s disability sector. Working with NDIS patients is still a relatively new venture for the practice, and adding enhanced technology will help them expand even more. “I think the next 24 months are a really great opportunity for us to integrate and enhance our tech offering to make that process easier for everyone to work together,” Young says. “At the moment, technology is one of the main bottlenecks with regards to effective multidisciplinary care within the disability sector.” PREFERRED VENDOR/PARTNER n PACE, The University of Adelaide https://www.adelaide.edu.au/pace | pace@adelaide.edu.au Empowering you, your staff and your organisation to achieve the best outcome.
