Culturally appropriate care as a fundamental human right within the new Aged Care Act

The Centre for Cultural Diversity in Ageing (The Centre), supported by Benetas, welcomes the Australian Government’s deliberations to introduce a new Aged Care Act replacing the Aged Care Act 1997. The Centre for Cultural Diversity in Ageing provided a policy submission to the Department of Health and Aged Care’s consultation paper on the foundations of a new Aged Care Act. The new Act is considered to be transformational in a sense that it will change the aged care legislative framework towards a “rights-based” one, putting the older person at the centre of aged care.
