Older people now have stronger rights and protections following recent changes to aged care laws in Australia. Find out about your rights in aged care, your right to speak up and support available to raise concerns, what to expect from your provider and how we can help.
Public information program
We are running a public information program to ensure older people, their families and supporters understand that stronger rights and protections exist under the Aged Care Act 2024. The program is about reaffirming to older people and their supporters that they can feel safe to raise concerns and give feedback directly with their provider, and to trust they will be listened to with respect. Safe, quality aged care is your right.
