Dr John Beard - Plenary Panel Day 1: Innovations in Aged Care and Program Delivery


Dr John Beard, is Director of Ageing and Life Course with the World Health Organization (WHO).


Later this month at the 13th Global Conference, leading experts will be the first to explore the implications for older people in natural and human-induced disasters and health emergencies.


Did you know that providing efficient and effective aged care services is one of the greatest public policy concerns currently facing governments today?


A radical shift in thought, innovation, and action is required in the development of models and modes of care to meet the expectations of future generations of older people.


Dr Beard will be joined by other world-renowned experts to discuss how older people are amongst the most vulnerable members of society during environmental and man-made disasters. As well, what will be expected of care providers in terms of their significant responsibility to ensure the clients' safety?


A topic that is of great concern in every modern country today. Dr Beard is available to discuss this topic and any other aged related matters.
