Further to my reply to @gemcarey.bsky.social below, I went through this whole thing again yesterday. With the same My Aged Care worker. I had REALLY struggled to get dressed (shoulders, hands, etc) yet she made me feel, from her words, that she felt I should (1/2)

While I'm here, new Thesis Whisperer post (it's hard to remember to feed all the platforms at the moment): thesiswhisperer.com/2024/03/02/w...
What do neurodivergent PhD students need?
In May 2023, Eirini Tzouma asked me participate in a panel on Neurodiversity at the Durham Centre for Academic Development post graduate research conference. Sadly, I had prior commitments, but we …

"Research like this, that can help medical professionals and parents identify the signs of sepsis … will save lives into the future."
Four years ago Jenni sang to her son as he died of one of Queensland's more preventable illnesses
Sepsis is the leading cause of preventable deaths in Queensland children, a study has found, occurring at higher rates than youth suicide, road accidents and drownings.

okay I think people mocking the fact I've had brain inflammation for several years is my breaking point with twitter and its toxicity.

It's really great to see the role of LACs (Navigators) in market stewardship recognised. That's something our research has argued for for years. #NDIS

I dont know if it's good or bad timing that I got rid of my brain fog the week this report came out. It's a bit overwhelming - HI, you were gone so long they made a new NDIS

Governance of a blended foundational/mainstream and NDIS service system 👀

Navigators = LACs as originally intended, I assume

Worth revisiting targeted and universalism frameworks when thinking about the new 'foundational #NDIS ecosystem' 26f05b23-e9e4-4e1c-b157-4d9d821c7e81.filesusr.com/ugd/aa1ed8_8...

Hopefully, foundational supports would help all those currently excluded from the #NDIS
December 7, 2023 at 12:05 AM
What should be 'foundational'? What should be individual #NDIS? Who is going to decide?
December 7, 2023 at 12:03 AM
Having worked hard on individualised plans, shifting people back to 'foundational supports' will not be without considerable loss.
December 6, 2023 at 11:56 PM
So we are going to bring back parts of the old block funded model that sits around the NDIS (the 'ecosystem')? I don't disagree, but the logistics of this will be very difficult. The buck passing, attempts to shift individual budgets onto the block funded parts.. etc
