St Vincent’s Care Services (SVCS) launched the Celebrating You video series in June 2023, followed by an accompanying podcast and a second video season in June 2024. These initiatives spotlight the vibrant stories of aged care residents, families, and staff, aiming to reshape perceptions of aged care in Australia.
Season 1 emphasised community, illustrating how relationships in aged care foster belonging and enable residents to thrive.
Season 2 shifted focus to the “eldest daughter” archetype—often the family decision-maker—guiding them through the emotional journey of transitioning a loved one into care. The series features candid interviews addressing challenges like guilt and anxiety while highlighting the benefits of residential care.
