About the show

At the National Centre of Excellence in Intellectual Disability Health (the Centre), we are working to make health care better for people with intellectual disability. People with intellectual disability often face different health challenges, but too often, they don’t get the care they deserve. This podcast is for healthcare professionals who want to improve their practice when working with people with intellectual disability. In each episode, hosts Ricky Kremer and Raylene Griffiths speak with experts, healthcare professionals, and people with lived experience. They share real stories and practical advice to help you build your skills and confidence. Each episode explores a key topic in health care, showing what good care looks like—and what still needs to change. Better care starts with better understanding. By combining lived experience with expert insight, this podcast supports you to deliver more inclusive, respectful, and effective care. If you want to give better care, and help make health care fairer for everyone—this podcast is for you. Follow the podcast to join us as we work together to improve health care for people with intellectual disability.
