LiveUp Italian language resources
This page has resources to help older Italian people and their families learn about low-risk assistive products (or everyday tools) to help them stay independent for longer.
All the resources are in Italian and English.
Everyday tools to help you stay independent
Whether you live by yourself or with others, there are tools that can help you stay independent by making tasks easier, safer, and more comfortable.
They can give you more energy for things you love the most, like:
- Being involved in community life
- Cooking and sharing meals with loved ones
- Personal hobbies, like gardening and crafts
Know your options for independence
When you know the options available, you can stay independent and connected to what you love doing for as long as possible.
The Everyday Tools to Help You Stay Independent ('Everyday Tools') resources were made by LiveUp in partnership with Little Rocket agency and a working group of Italian Australian community members.
With special thanks to:
Angela De Iacovo, Angela Di Pasquale, Anna De Amicis, Grace Bongiovanni, Joe Petrilli, Josephine Campana, Nancy Petrilli, and Vinnie Petrilli.
