Every older person deserves respect, dignity, and the high-quality care they need to live fulfilling lives.
Unfortunately, aged care in Australia is dominated by for-profit providers, long waiting times, and inadequate support, leaving too many older people neglected and underserved.
Labor and Liberal governments have prioritised profits and user-pays models, funnelling funds to for-profit providers while neglecting accountability and quality care.
The Greens are committed to putting older people before profits by reforming the system with universal access, accountability, and care centred on human rights and community well-being.
