#AgedCareAustralia#Australians, do you want the elderly in #Australia to receive good enough aged care?
If so please contact your federal reps and tell them that you will not put up with the situation as described below.
(Don't have their contact details handy?
See my next toot.) -

#AgedCare companies in #Australia have corrupted society and corroded social cohesion.I hear that #AgedCareAustralia is worse than #AgedCareUSA.
One instance of the corruption and corrosion:
Elderly resident seeks outlet for his #Sexuality.
(Company has policy about this, but it hasn't implemented it.)
Facility gets medic to prescribe testosterone blocker.
Doesn't raise issue with the resident's wife.Blocker acted as chemical straight jacket, stupefying and enfeebling the resident.

Attended the "Small Towns, Big Difference" Forum in Charlton today run by the Mallee Regional Partnership. Some amazing stories from some amazing people demonstrating what can be done by small communities. Focus in my town, Wedderburn, is aged care, but it seems to be an area full of mines. Why is it that our aged care nationally is in total disarray and no political will to address it? #project #community #agedcareaustralia #agedcare

Have any interest in aged care services in Australia?Maybe looking for a place for an elderly parent?
Considering one for your self or spouse?
Or know someone in one already?Maybe ask the facility or it's parent company if they have any relationship with Mirus Australia?

The way In-Home Aged Care services are funded and delivered is set to change.
The reformed model proposed by the Australian Government will significantly overhaul our In-Home Care system, but we are still asking fundamental questions about how the new system will work.
Our concerns with the detail of the new model are outlined in our submission to the government that you can read online.
