Reablement Conversations with Professor Peter Gore

In this episode, Hilary O’Connell has a chat with Professor Peter Gore, Professor of practice in ageing and vitality at the Population Health Science Institute at Newcastle University in the United Kingdom. Peter's work involves aged-related functional decline and the malleability of ageing. 

He has over 33 years of experience in medical product design. One of the tools Peter has developed with his company ADL Smartcare, is the LifeCurve™, which helps people understand how they are ageing and how they can take action toward improving their healthy ageing journey.

Together they discuss what healthy ageing looks like, the importance of sharing trustworthy information with an ageing population and aged care service providers, to change attitudes towards ageing and bring practical examples and tools to improve independence to have more 'good days'.
