In this episode, I interview Jo Boyce - CEO of Crookwell/Taralga Aged Care. Crookwell/Taralga Aged Care is a merger of 2 organisations responsible for 3 aged care facilities. Jo shares her experiences as the CEO of the company, about the facilities they handle, the communities where the facilities are, the company being an integral part of the communities, and her plans after exiting the company. Jo’s current professional responsibilities She is the current CEO of Crookwell/Taralga Aged Care Ltd, responsible for 3 care facilities: Viewhaven Lounge, Sunset Lodge, and Upper Lachlan Community Care The company merged from 2 organisations,Crockwell and Taralga, 12 years ago. "For a community, by the community" CTAC have been operating for about 45 years in Taralga and nearly 40 years in Crockwell. Her educational background is in business and studied in QUT's Australian Centre for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies (ACPNS) She’s been the CEO for 7 years and is exiting the role for personal reasons "Some roles you do tend to put in a lot more than you get back, but, I think, in this particular role, I certainly got a lot more back." What CTAC was like when she joined 7 years ago The Upper Lachlan Community Care which has grown exponentially over the last 7 years What is the importance of the home care part of the business? Continual care type of service: from onboarding, basic level of care, building relationships where clients learn to trust the company and the company trust the client, then they move to the higher level of care, home care packages and often some entering the facilities later on for a respite or full time care. "Home care is important. We put a lot of effort into getting the base-level services going and seeking every opportunity we can to expand those base-level services." The culture of the business and what Jo enjoyed most "Relational care: that's what I try to bring into our organisation." "You try to build that relationship and build that level of trust. Coming into smaller communities you realise that you need to do business that way. People won't trust you if you don't." "The level of interconnectedness and relationships is even more critical but it has its positives and negatives." Things that Jo is excited about for the organisation in the medium term "The load is shared, which is also a really great thing when you've got a team where you can share the load and people feel that they also can spread their wings a bit. And that is something I've always felt important in a managerial role." How would Jo best describe the region? What are some of the things people get up to and the attractions? Jo shares what people who are considering aged-care management their next career opportunity should expect "Looking at times like what we had recently with Covid-19, being able to reach out and communicate to everyone through this critical time is very important. And across the whole organisation, not just the staff, but to board members, to our residents, to our clients, into our wider community as well." "It's good to know who we've got around us, and who we can turn to." "If someone was to come on board and be very genuine, you know, take on the role to the next level with the independent living units and the opportunities that creates,I think it would be a really great time for them." After Jo leaves the company, what are the things she is looking forward to?

I want to see the CTAC propaganda erotica. Not for personal reasons, as a purely academic interest. Reileen's plans continue to make no goddamned sense.

As a veteran serving more than eight years as a Navy SEAL, Josh uses that experience along with a relentless desire and developed a canine program unlike any in the world.

Josh Morton is a frequent guest on this show and for many reasons. With Canine Tactical of Iowa he is constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible.

Featured poet and info about CTAC events

In this podcast episode Ali talks to four members of the team: Mandy John-Baptiste, Service head of CTAC, Martina Murray, Assistant team manager, and Charlotte Jamieson and Sylvia Vuong who are social workers.   Mandy, Martina, Charlotte and Sylvia provide us with an overview of CTAC's work and explain why children and young people are trafficked and the ways in which they are exploited. They also discuss the “tricks” child traffickers employ to control and isolate children and young people and what professionals should do if they suspect a child might have been trafficked.   We also hear about the child's voice and the part this plays in shaping the essential service CTAC provides. View the podcast transcript on the NSPCC Learning website.

In this portion, we go full blast into the future world of The Protectorate: Bay City, Harlan's World, the Envoys, CTAC marines and of course, Meths, Sleeves, Stacks and Simulspace. Sorry if we've already lost you. This was one of our longest reviews of anything and if you've seen the show, you totally understand why.

The guests featured on these three shows all share CTAC’s vision to help Americans with advanced illness, especially the most vulnerable among us, to get comprehensive, high-quality, family-centered care where and when they need it, and in a way that honors their dignity. That makes all the people working toward that vision heroes in my mind, and I am fortunate to have had a view join me on the show.   One of the guests you’ll hear from today is well known among those of us who work to reclaim death as a natural human experience instead of primarily a clinical medical one. His name is BJ Miller. I knew of BJ from his inspiring work as a palliative care doctor with the Zen Hospice Center and from his TED Talk, so when I had a chance to meet him in person at CTAC, well, it was an incredible honor. When you hear him speak, I think you’ll see why.   But first, let’s drop in on a fun conversation I was having with another amazing guest from the CTAC conference, Amber Slichta from the Ralph C. Wilson Foundation. Now if you don’t know of Ralph Wilson, he is best known as the founder and 54-year owner of the Buffalo Bills football team, and upon his passing he left a small fortune, check that, a huge fortune, $1.2 Billion and counting to be exact, that by his direction is to be granted out to the last penny by the year 2035. It’s part of Amber’s job to ensure those investments are done wisely and in accordance with Mr. Wilson’s wishes, which are clearly stated on the foundation’s website. But Let me give you a hint — if you are working in the field of caregiving or livable communities in Western New York or Southeast Michigan, then you’re gonna wanna pay attention.   One last thing before we start. If you are with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, I want you to know I was just kidding about barbecuing a Pug. I meant to say barbecued PIG.    All kidding aside, please join me for a short conversation with Amber Slichta from the Ralph C. Wilson Foundation.

Overview: One of the great privileges I have as host of this podcast is the opportunity to meet so many good people doing really great  work. At the top of that list are the folks at the Coalition to Transform Advanced Care, or CTAC, a DC based organization dedicated to the ideal that all Americans with advanced illness, especially the sickest and most vulnerable among us, receive comprehensive, high-quality, person- and family-centered care that honors their dignity. I love that.    So naturally I was super stoked to be invited to CTACs annual conference where I got to hear from folks on the front lines of the battle to transform care from the fragmented, siloed systems that result in unnecessary suffering to one where caregivers and the people they serve are empowered and getting the care they want when and where they choose. Today I want to introduce two people from the front lines of this great challenge, Torrie Fields and Dr. Stephen Bekanich.   Now please understand these recordings were made at the conference, so you’ll hear some occasional noise in the background. But you know, I’m like a moth to the flame, and when I see a bright light, I move toward it. I think you’ll agree these two guests are shining bright. So please join me on this special episode of Dance Past Sunset, recorded live at the 2017 annual conference of the Coalition to Transform Advanced Care. First up is a women who owned the stage with her positive energy and optimism, Ms. Torrie Fields, Senior Program Mgr for Advanced Illness and Palliative Care, Blue Shield of California plus their affiliated Medicaid Carefirst Health Plan.   What You’ll Learn from Torrie: How she advises start-up incubators and early stage entrepreneurs focused on advanced illness or end-of-life care Blue Shield’s long running history working with new organizations and helping them to grow The innovative ventures she has seen that really excite her How she uses a game called “Hello” from Common Practice’s game (formerly called “My Gift of Grace”) on first dates to determine values and openness What it means to live well all the way through the end of life,  Her personal role as caregiver, and with folks who are not comfortable talking about death, and who are not tech savvy The needs for more ways to help people understand the progression of their disease  How tech designers don’t understand the digital divide Her evaluation of the Trillion dollar "Silver Tsunami” and its relation to Spinal Tap Policies and regulations that keep us in the past (e.g. restrictions on what we can do in the home) and stifle innovation How do we enable the future   Stephen Bekanich, MD: Many advanced care patients, like Torrie’s mom, want more help understanding what’s happening with their health now and what they can expect to face in the future. That’s one of the things my next guest helps people do. Dr. Stephen Bekanich from Iris Plans is not only focused on that challenge, he looks like he belongs in a rock&roll band with a fire red electric guitar strapped on him. And when you see a guy walking around who looks like that, you just have to ask, you know?   What You’ll Learn from Stephen: How he uses his rock & roll attire to open a conversation with his patients and help them focus on the relationship and not just their illness About WalMart's Angel Wings   How Iris plans targets COPD, CHF, late stage malignancies, dementia, stroke, cirrhosis and helps patients assess what’s happening now. and what will they will face in the future. What’s missing from Obamacare How to bring the patient and their families into the equation When Texas will become a Republic again, his tips for finding good BBQ   Coming Up Next on the Show: Thank you Stephen and Torrie for taking time to speak with me, and thank you CTAC for hosting such an important event. Coming up in the next episode of Dance Past Sunset, I’ll have more guests from the conference including a couple who took their 90 year old mother and a dog named Ringo on a bucket trip your across America.
