Dr Lucy takes her role working with our older population seriously, and while she loves spending time with her patients on the TPCH ward, she is happiest when they get to go ‘home’.
Not all patients will be well enough to return to the home they have known, and many are waiting for aged care placements in a residential aged care facility.
“We know our patients who are well enough to leave hospital should not be spending longer than they need in a hospital ward – it’s much better for patients both clinically and emotionally if they can be discharged to their new home,” Dr Dakin said.
“As a geriatrician, we work hard to keep our older patients awaiting aged care placements as physically and emotionally well as we can, but we understand that more interim care arrangements and aged care solutions are needed.
“We treat unwell patients, but when a patient is well enough to be discharged to their new home with supports so they can continue doing the things they love, we want to see them do that.” 💛🏡

"I was a midwife here at the Royal Brisbane and Women`s Hospital and I watched this building being built, and then the transition into the new building before retiring. It is my first time back here as an inpatient and I am astounded by how busy it is, but also how organised it is and how skilful and caring everyone is. These days I am the social coordinator for my retirement village, so I organise the outings and activities, my favourite is the bus trips and picnics. I`d say my advice is to follow your dreams, I always wanted to be a nurse, so I followed mine."
