Linda Belardi has been appointed editor of Community Care Review and will be responsible for overseeing Australia’s new magazine on home care, support, respite and reablement. Ms Belardi has been deputy editor of AAA since 2013 and is a former editor of Nursing Review.

Ms Belardi said that since the AAA group launched Community Care Review in January there had been overwhelmingly positive feedback from providers and staff, confirming that the publication was providing a much-needed source of news and analysis of the issues impacting the growing community care sector.

“Given the current reforms rolling out, and the next wave of changes recently announced by government, the challenges and opportunities in the community care sector are significant. I look forward to further developing Community Care Review to be a strong source of independent, high quality news and analysis for the sector,” she said.

Ms Egan has also been appointed deputy editor of AAA and will work across the group, reporting on the uses of technology in residential, community aged care and retirement living.

“This is an exciting time for technology adoption in aged and healthcare, with a number of major new players entering the space. We are also delighted to have recently started a regular editorial column from the Aged Care Industry ICT Company in Technology Review magazine, where it will provide the sector with the latest news on its activities and programs,” said Ms Egan.
