Vision Australia is providing consultation and responses to the Australian government on reforms to aged care and the impact this will have for older people living with significant vision loss.
You can find out more about what the reforms involve on the government's Aged Care Engagement Hub.
Vision Australia is encouraging our clients to participate in the reform process to ensure our community is represented.
The Australian government is currently running a survey for older Australians, including those who use aged care services and those who do not. The survey is also open to family members and carers of older people.
By completing the survey, you'll help the Australia government understand understand how much you know about the aged care reforms.
You can complete the survey online now. If you would like to complete this survey over the phone or have a hard copy sent to you, please call the Health and Aged Care consultations line on 1800 318 209 and tell the operator you would like to complete the Reform Pulse Survey.
The survey is open until 5pm AEDT Friday, March 24.
If you have any questions about this survey or the aged care reforms, please contact: [email protected].
