I'm Maggie Beer, and I'm on my way to a lunch appointment, but I've got to say I'm a little
00:09
nervous.
00:10
Here we go.
00:13
I've come to an aged care residence, the kind of place where nearly 200,000 Australians
00:19
live, a number that's predicted to increase by over 80% in the next 20 years.
00:29
Living in a care home can be a time to flourish, the reward for a life well spent, but in Australia,
00:37
aged care is in crisis.
00:41
I was horrified to hear the recent Royal Commission findings which revealed that 68% of Australians
00:48
in residential aged care are either at risk of malnutrition or are malnourished.
00:55
The statistics are dire, and it's totally unacceptable in our society.
01:01
And nurses and carers are feeling overworked and undervalued.
01:06
It's physically draining, emotionally draining, and mentally draining.
01:11
So for the health and well-being of our senior Australians, I want to give aged care the
01:17
overhaul it so desperately needs.
01:20
Wow, it's so beautiful.
01:22
Spreading the word about good food and nutrition has been my life's mission.
01:26
Lewis, very Lewis.
01:28
In a groundbreaking experiment, over the next four months, I'm immersing myself in an aged
01:34
care residence.
01:35
Can I sit here?
01:37
I've assembled an expert team, and together we'll revamp the menus and the entire dining
01:44
experience.
01:45
I mean, it's everything we could ask for.
01:48
We'll give the home a much needed makeover.
01:51
This space has potential.
01:53
Staff will be upskilled and empowered.
01:56
Feeling valued and proud of their work will help them become better carers.
02:01
If we can pull this off, it will give us life-changing results for the residents and the staff, and
02:07
it will give us a model to share Australia-wide.
02:11
So the pressure is on to make this work.
02:15
Lives are at stake.
