Aged Care Royal Commission interim Report
Many of you will have seen that the interim report from the Aged Care Royal Commission was released last week.
Although the report was confronting and much of the media attention has been negative, Rise are optimistic that the changes to Government funding and policy that will flow on will have a positive effect for the people we support.
At Rise, we remain committed to providing the highest quality care and we are here to support you and to discuss any queries or concerns you might have the issues raised during the period of the Commission.
We know there are lots of people providing remarkable care every single day to older Australians, and the quote from the report that captures this best, said “I would like to pay tribute to the aged care workers who care for my mother and who do really actually care. They are in a difficult position trying to provide the best they can in less than ideal circumstances…”
