Episode 1 - Navigating Healthcare: From Checkups to Critical Decisions

  • Summary

  • When it comes to their health, how are your parents faring? If they’re in their late 60s, 70s or 80s, you might have noticed a few physical and mental changes, or perhaps an increase in the number of healthcare appointments they need to attend.

    Helping your parents keep on top of it all can be a daunting and challenging journey—for all of you.

    Performer, author and host of ‘Parenting Up with Australian Unity’, Jean Kittson's mother and father are 99 and 96, respectively. And although they've each experienced their share of health concerns, they're still living independently, thanks in part to the dedication of their personalised care team.

    But it hasn’t always been easy. In this episode, Jean and Dr Jeannie Yoo, Chief Medical Officer at Australian Unity, swap tips on how to help our older loved ones stay as well as possible for as long as possible.
