Tuesday 1 October is International Day of Older Persons. The theme for this year is Ageing with Dignity: The importance of Strengthening Care and Support Systems for Older Persons Worldwide.
International Day of Older Persons is an opportunity to celebrate older people in our society who continue to share their knowledge and wisdom within our local communities.
The Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme
To mark this day we are re-sharing a case study about The Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme (ACVVS).
Read Hans and Rahman’s story to see how the ACVVS can help older people build new social connections within the community. And how the ACVVS can be a truly rewarding experience, for both recipients and volunteers.
