Rose Plater is an aged care executive and leader, and co-host of Time Well Spent — the podcast where aged care leaders say what they really think. A former aged care executive, Rose has since moved into the construction side of the industry, where she is General Manager of Clients and Innovation at Paynters. Her career bridges two sides of aged care — how it is run and how it is built — and she unerstands the system as well from the resident’s perspective as the provider’s. Rose is a passionate advocate on some of the conversations the sector still finds hard to have, including dementia care and the place of sexuality and intimacy in later life.
