NOT JUST FUN STUFF | We give our Members a voice. They inform us and together our voices are louder. Find out more 👇

This month: Members - based in Darwin, the Darwin Rural area and Alice - shared their experiences of seeking or receiving aged care services at home.
👥 While many respondents value the support they receive, the aged care system is viewed as overly complex, difficult to navigate and lacking clear information about services, providers and costs. Access challenges are amplified in rural and remote areas, and many people feel they need more personalised guidance to successfully navigate the system.
👥 Our Aged Care Navigators help Members and others to understand and access government-funded aged care services 👇

(A survey summary is available on the Members website). If you need help accessing this, please contact us during office hours.
