Informal carers save government billions in care costs. Society expects high care standards for children while older people are ignored. Ask your local member what their plans are for older people care. Rhys Bosley for Algester ChrisyT1000 AUS-Hartford Consortium of GerontologicalNursing Yun-Hee Jeon

The problems are challenging but some societies are managing these better than others. The Netherlands has excellent education and staffing models that we could learn from.

The complexity of older people care makes this work challenging. It can’t successfully be achieved by uneducated workers. What are your expectations of AC? What are your future needs?

Unfortunately ChrisyT1000, there is little acknowledgement of the complexity of care requirements & the need for highly-skilled carers in AC. Carers require speciality knowledge & this can not be learnt in cert courses. Older people have complex care needs.

Giod article however, it fails to recognize the reason for current attrition of carers. It assumes it is the low pay rate. AC is one of the fastest growing industries with new providers receiving huge gov grants as incentive, carers charged out with min 100% up on gross pay.
