This book was released on 2009-01 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is written for people who are thinking about where they will be living as they get older and for their families. Some people may be thinking about moving for lifestyle reasons. Often, once the family has left home, people think about moving to somewhere smaller and easier to maintain. Once work commitments have lessened or ceased, people may think about the attractions of living in a retirement village with its opportunities for companionship and leisure. Other people are keen to remain in their own homes but might want some more support and help with everyday tasks and perhaps some changes to make living in the house easier to manage. For some older people there will be a move to a residential aged care home which can best meet their needs for care and support. All these situations are covered in this book, as well as the financial aspects. Many people worry about how they will pay for the care and accommodation they need in later life and how any changes in living arrangements may affect their pensions. This book helps you to understand the financial side of your accommodation arrangements and the protection that is in place to help people on a low income to gain access to the care they need."--Introduction.

Book excerpt: This stimulating volume examines the many faces of Australia’s ageing population, the social and health issues they contend with, and the steps being taken—and many that should be taken—to help ensure a more positive and productive later life. Individual and societal ageing are conceptualized as developmental in nature, socially diverse, and marked by daily life challenges stemming from the country’s economic structures, attitudes, geography, political landscape, and infrastructure. Wide-ranging coverage (e.g., health, inequalities, employment, transportation) assesses options available to older people, and the role of families, employers, service providers, government agencies, and others in promoting or expanding those choices. The book’s double emphasis on challenges in older people’s lives and opportunities for enhancing their quality of life is on clear display as case studies examine policy issues—and propose solutions—in a societal and individual context. Included in the coverage: · Australian developments in ageing: issues and history. · Cultural diversity, health, and ageing. · Indigenous Australians and ageing: responding to diversity in policy and practice. · Enhancing the health and employment participation of older workers. · Housing and the environments of ageing. · Health services and care for older people. The rich examples in Ageing in Australia contain a depth of understanding and evidence for sociologists, gerontologists and psychologists studying ageing, health care professionals providing care to older people, and policy analysts assessing areas for improvement.
Download or read book The Australian Dream written by Alan Morris and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia is experiencing a significant demographic shift – the proportion of the population that is aged 65 years and older is increasing substantially and will continue to do so. With this shift comes particular housing challenges for older people. The Australian Dream examines the impacts of housing tenure on older Australians who are solely or primarily dependent on the age pension for their income. Drawing on 125 in-depth interviews, it compares the life circumstances of older social housing tenants, private renters and homeowners – their capacity to pay for their accommodation, how this cost impacts on their ability to lead a decent life, maintain social ties and pursue leisure activities, and how their housing situation affects their health and wellbeing. The book considers some key questions: Are older homeowners who are solely dependent on the single age pension managing financially? Are they able to maintain their homes and engage in social activity? How are older private renters who have to pay market rents faring in comparison with older homeowners and social housing tenants? What are the implications of subsidised rents and legally guaranteed security of tenure for older social housing tenants? Based on a study conducted in Sydney and regional New South Wales, this pioneering research starkly and powerfully reveals the fundamental role that affordable, adequate and secure housing plays in creating a foundation for a decent life for older Australians.
