24.01.2022 "In its two years, the royal commission heard from 641 witnesses, including residents, staff, families and experts, held almost 100 days of hearings, accepted more than 10,500 public submissions and produced 38 reports and research papers, including a special report on COVID-19." It's a report that proved what we already knew - that aged care was in crisis and in deep need of reform. We urge the Prime Minister to release his Government's response immediately, and to begin to fix this broken system - before more elderly Australians suffer in the system.

24.01.2022 Every aged care resident deserves better than to miss out on care. Mandatory staffing is the only way we can stop instances of missed care. Tell the Prime Minister we need mandatory staffing ratios in aged care now: https://fixagedcare.com.au/

15.01.2022 Our elderly deserve dignity and respect in their old age, but the lack of registered nurses 24/7 in our aged care homes means that many of them don't receive this all the time. If you think it's time to fix aged care, sign our petition today: https://www.itsnottoomuch.com/

07.01.2022 We agree that there have been many failures and shortfalls in the Australian aged care system - Commissioner Tony Pagone, final report of the Aged Care Royal Commission Over 1000 pages. Over 100 recommendations. The Aged Care Royal Commission’s final report has laid bare the problems in the troubled system. It’s time for the Morrison Government to commit to fixing the sector, and ensure vulnerable elderly get the high quality care and support that they deserve.

06.01.2022 Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. Earlier this year the Sex Discrimination Commissioner’s ‘Respect@work’ report found that sexual harassment at work is rife and our current laws are failing to keep workers safe. The report made 55 powerful recommendations, but the Morrison Government hasn't acted on a single one.... We are calling on the Morrison Government to immediately act and implement the 'Respect@work' recommendations. All workplaces should be free of violence and harassment. Everyone deserves to be safe at work.

06.01.2022 You got that right!
