Aged care still needs us

As we process the weekend's election result and move on with a government that made no commitments for aged care, let's not forget what we are fighting for.

The federal election never defined our campaign - it is much bigger than that.

Every day, more and more of the community are becoming aware of what we are facing in aged care.

The aged care sector has been in crisis for over a decade. Now we have a Royal Commission, an admission from the government of non-compliance and failures in the aged care sector, as well as the attention of the media and a country that wants to see real change.

The Royal Commission is hearing the message on staffing loud and clear, so we must continue in our efforts to advocate for a better aged care system for our frail elderly. The issues have not disappeared and neither will we.

We have run a highly successful campaign so far. Let's continue together - stronger and more determined as leaders in the fight for a better aged care system for all.

Join us at our More Staff For Aged Care Facebook page and keep up to date with our campaign.

Thank you for your support.
