Congratulations @AnikaWells - it’s time for change for older Australians. @Elder_Rights is ready to meet as the Victorian member of the national Older Persons Advocacy Network @gedkearney
On @RNBreakfast with @PatsKarvelas: as a grassroots MP, I know how deeply Australians feel about fixing our broken aged care system.
As your new Minister for Aged Care, I'm ready to roll up my sleeves and get to work. #auspol
@DrEricLevi@BramwellKathryn This is also (partially) the problem for nurses and care workers in aged care. Completing bandaid paperwork that no one reads because they don’t have time…but it ticks a bureaucracy box.
This is absolutely heartbreaking. No matter who forms govt, we must ALL come together and support aged care reform - NOW! Where the hell is the outrage?

A new inquiry will examine the economic and social impacts of allowing informal #carers to take extended unpaid leave from their work to care for older people who are frail and living at home. https://t.co/j9qYXeZ9cz
