STAREE (STAtins in Reducing Events in the Elderly) is a clinical trial, run in collaboration with your General Practitioner, investigating whether cholesterol lowering medication, known as statins, can prolong good health and maintain independence amongst older people.
The extra funding will see the line expanded to include outbound calls to carers of people living with dementia, as well as more specific community supports for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) seniors.
We have created a detailed action plan for the Queensland Government to address some of the big concerns for Queenslanders as we age and create a state for all ages. The action plan gives a clear direction to achieve our Vision for Queensland.
We have seen what change is possible when bureaucratic barriers are removed, shared wellbeing is valued above perceived differences, and a spirit of collaboration is encouraged.
