🔑 Proactive Aged-Care Planning is Key Discussing aged care can be a sensitive topic, but it is important to have open and transparent conversations with your loved ones regarding their wishes. By actively listening to their thoughts and concerns, you can proactively plan and create a course of action that aligns with their desires. As these discussions may elicit strong emotions, it can be beneficial to take notes or record your loved one's wishes to ensure all important information is documented for future reference.

There's no denying that the Aged Care Taskforce Report has sparked a lot of discussion. However, as Tracey Burton rightly points out, the community's involvement in shaping their own future is crucial. The 2021 Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety Final Report recommended a new Aged Care Act, but progress has been slow. With the tsunami of people requiring aged care rapidly rising, we need faster action towards a more equitable solution. Let's hope the broader media, community, and public engage with this report and demand change that promotes equitable and innovative solutions for dignified, person-centred and person-driven aged care for all. #agedcare #agedcaretaskforce
