The Australian Ageing Generation Handbook is a timely and essential self-help book—the first of its kind tailored specifically for Australians facing the growing demands of elder care. As recent research signals dementia rising to become one of Australia’s leading causes of death, families across the country are confronting the emotional and logistical challenges of supporting ageing loved ones.

Australians are living longer and enjoying improved quality of life. But this increased longevity has also created a new pressure point: how can adult children, often raising families of their own, effectively care for elderly parents while maintaining their careers and personal lives?

Drawing from her personal journey of caring, author Josie offers a compassionate and practical perspective. She knows firsthand the confusion and emotional weight of navigating aged care services, government programs, and the often overwhelming task of finding help. This self-help book not only offers guidance and insight but also compiles an invaluable directory of support services for families across the country.

Whether you’re caring for a parent, grandparent, or spouse, this guide provides clarity, comfort, and concrete tools. The Australian Ageing Generation Handbook is an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to manage the complexities of elder care in today’s Australia—a true self-help book
