Seniors living with HIV are still suffering from a lack of education among professionals in the aged care industry, according to a recent forum dedicated to the issue which ran in New Farm, Queensland.

National Meals on Wheels day took place last week to celebrate the 78,700 volunteers and their contribution to their community.
Meals on Wheels Australia President Leon Holmes said the day was about recognising the efforts of the organisation, who have delivered more than 14.8 million meals to over 50,000 recipients in a year.
