Ageing is a universal reality, and as we grow older, we encounter diverse health and social challenges. This is no different for older individuals living with HIV. Join us in this episode of the SNACK series, where we discuss a range of health and social comorbidities as well as the profound social and mental health challenges that PLHIV face - this episode unveils the layers of their experiences. Aged care workers, this is your guide to fostering empathy and tailoring support for those navigating shame, stigma, loneliness, and isolation. Tune in for crucial insights to enhance your person-centred care approach.



Special thanks to our host for this season, Blair Martin - award winning actor, presenter, writer, and radio host of “Queer Radio” at community radio 4ZZZ Meanjin/Brisbane.

We would also like to thank to all the guests and organisations that contributed to this episode.

QPP would like to acknowledge the importance of our diverse PLHIV communities as they shape the principles that underpin the work we do. The lived experience and peer contributions of PLHIV remains always at the centre of who we are at QPP. We would like to take a moment to remember those who are no longer with us and laid the foundations for QPP and the sector - we remember the courage and sacrifice of many and we will continue to work towards a world where people with HIV live lives to their full potential, in good health and free from discrimination.

This season of SNACK has been produced by Queensland Positive People as part of the COTA Queensland Consortium Home Care Workforce Support Program which received grant funding from the Australian Government.
