By Guest Author Benetas CEO Sandra Hills OAM.
Anglicare Australia has recently released a report, Life on the Wait List, which highlights that older Australians are spending months without support while they wait for care at home. It highlights that delays in accessing home care are resulting in older Australians being pushed into residential aged care and even hospitals as their health deteriorates.
The majority of older Victorians prefer to maintain their independence by staying in the family home as long as possible, according to the latest Benetas research*. Unfortunately, the same research suggests many of these same seniors are reluctant to seek out and receive home care.
Benetas welcomes the three recommendations made by the Committee of Economic Development of Australia (CEDA) to address serious workforce issues facing the aged care sector. Today’s Duty of Care: Aged-Care Sector Running on Empty report calls for the implementation of a user-pay aged care system with income or asset thresholds, ensuring the long-term viability of the sector.
Commencing this month, Benetas has announced that they will be delivering services to a new cohort of people, living in the Latrobe, Baw Baw and Hepburn shires, who are eligible to be part of the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP).
