Staff who treat the aged with love and respect
Letter, The Age, 2 November 2019
After reading the Aged Care Royal Commissioner’s heart breaking interim report, I realise how lucky my parents were to find an aged care home where the staff treated them with kindness and respect – and who had time to care, chat/laugh with them and take an interest in their lives.
We found the aged care home by luck. It was the only aged care home in their area that allowed them to sleep together.
Could the good aged care home providers please stand up and be counted? Now more than ever, the public needs to know you exist.
