Connecting the pieces - A diversity, wellness & reablement podcast
The Eastern Sector Development Team host conversations about inclusive and responsive aged care services. We promote an intersectional approach to service delivery that recognises and responds to consumers diversity, their preferences, lived experiences and supports them to be empowered and active participants in their care. Our podcasts will explore person-centred care through a wellness and reablement model that is intrinsically aligned to progressive and inclusive diversity practice.

Episode 12
If we are to truly create inclusive and welcoming environments, it is important that people are comfortable to be themselves and know they are appreciated and respected. It is for this reason that we say it is necessary to celebrate, not tolerate diversity. In this episode, Dale and Lisa will discuss the approach to celebrating diversity, the role it plays in creating equitable dynamics between people and the need to communicate your support and celebration of diversity. Good practice examples from Connecting the Pieces resource, Building Culturally Inclusive Social Support Groups and the Centre for Cultural Diversity in Ageing are shared to help listeners support the implementation of inclusive practice.
