It later became part of Domiciliary Care South Australia (DCSA). My employment at DCSA began in 1985 and I have worked there in allied health, case management, supervision, research, teaching and agency management roles. I am an Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Social Administration and Social Work at Flinders University and have been a researcher in the Department of Public Health, Flinders University for over two years. My combined research experience spans the fields of qualitative and quantitative research in epidemiology, gerontology, work/life balance, work and well-being, program evaluation and social health. DCSA and the University of South Australia provide financial support for the doctoral research to which this paper is related.
