Medication management in Palliative Care is about more than clinical safety.
It's about comfort, dignity, and really seeing the person behind the diagnosis. 😷❤️

With the release of the Aged Care Act today, we are one step closer to reform – but it’s only one part of the solution.

Critical issues of the communication and swallowing needs of older people in residential aged care still need to be addressed. We will provide a detailed analysis of the Act soon, but it’s clear that urgent action is still needed.

Despite the prevalence of communication and swallowing needs in residential aged care, speech pathology services are provided for only 0.06 minutes per resident each day. That’s a fraction of the already insufficient four minutes per day of allied health services provided.

Imagine being unable to get your words out clearly to make your choices known, keep connections with loved ones, or safely enjoy your favourite meals. For many older adults, this is their everyday experience.

This level of care they receive in residential aged care is nowhere near adequate to meet their needs or to ensure their health and wellbeing.

Speech pathologists play a crucial role as part of multidisciplinary teams, supporting older people with these critical needs. Speech Pathology Australia continues to advocate for the government to commit to reform to better identify and meet the allied health care needs (including speech pathology) of older people in residential aged care.

"NUNCA É CEDO demais para promover a respiração NASAL" - 👃🏻
Respiração saudável, certa e rotineira deve ser pelo NARIZ! 👃🏻Não é normal respirar pela boca. Por isso comece a prevenção desde cedo. Sempre que seu bebê estiver com a boca aberta e os lábios entreabertos, feche-os com delicadeza. Além disso, com uma seringa plástica comum, lave as narinas pelo menos uma vez ao dia com soro fisiológico puro, isto também é prevenção! (Aprendi com minha amiga ).
Se o seu filho, mesmo bebê ou criança, respira pela boca constantemente sem estar gripado, algo pode estar impendindo-o, desta forma, fale enfaticamente com o Pediatra dele, ou procure ajuda imediatamente com um Odontopediatra, Otorrinolaringologista ou Fonoaudiólogo. A saúde do seu filho pode estar sendo comprometida por toda uma vida, pois cria-se um ciclo vicioso, doente e repetitivo.
Alterações como hipertrofia (aumento) de adenóide e conchas nasais (cornetos), desvio de septo nasal, amígdalas (tonsilas palatinas) volumosas, quadros repetitivos de rinites alérgicas entre outros, causam RESPIRAÇÃO BUCAL, que por sua vez, gera noites mal dormidas, bruxismo (ranger ou apertar os dentes), apneia do sono (momentos de falta de ar), durante o dia agitação e hiperatividade da criança (contrário do adulto), baixo rendimento escolar, consequências físicas tais como palato (“céu da boca”) fundo e estreito, assimetrias faciais etc..
Respiração é coisa séria, leve isso em conta, pois a qualidade de vida de uma pessoa está diretamente relacionada como ela respira e dorme, e isto inclui também as crianças. .
