You may have heard our episode with Professor Joseph Ibrahim a fortnight ago, called The Legacy of the Royal Commission, in which Joe chatted about the impact of the Royal Commission’s final report and the Government’s policy response.  Well this episode continues that conversation from a different viewpoint.

On the show today we're talking to Kerryn Dillon and Rich Ainley from PwC, who as well as advising many aged care providers on matters of structure and management, guided the Government in the creation of the so-called "Five Pillars Plan".

This episode is really about deconstructing the effects that this Government plan will have on the industry, from management, to care workers and to care recipients and families. It turns out, it’ll take some time for changes to set in, but in the meantime Kerryn and Rich have some ideas that can help the industry get ready for imminent change.

If you’ve been listening to these episodes and wondering, hmm how can I help them keep releasing episodes? The answer is pretty easy! Just jump onto your podcast listening app and leave us a review with all your lovely thoughts about the show - they go a long way to helping us find new listeners and opportunities.

And lastly, we’re fast approaching the end of the year and wanted to sow a little seed that we’re doing something fun and different for our episodes in December - we’ll tell you about more, next time.
