Aged Care Royal Commission

The Aged Care Royal Commission was an inquiry established by the Australian government to examine the quality, safety, and regulation of aged care services. It aimed to identify systemic issues, including abuse, neglect, and inadequate care for elderly Australians, and to develop recommendations for improving the sector. The commission’s work involved gathering evidence from residents, families, and providers to ensure aged care services meet high standards, respect dignity, and support the wellbeing of older people. Its findings have influenced policy reforms to enhance accountability, transparency, and overall quality in aged care.
