Rodney has for decades been a champion for the rights of older Australians, both as a lawyer helping people and their families access justice, and in the political arena pushing for legislation that codifies and enforces people’s rights.
In this practice-oriented webinar, Rodney will discuss the wide range of client matters which fall under elder law and the opportunities for personal injury lawyers to take on this work.
The webinar will be split broadly into two areas of elder law:
Aged care: nothing to see here?
The aged care contract: trips, traps and how lawyers can help
The Serious Incident Response Scheme (SIRS)
The new compensation claims scheme
Handling immunity
Elder abuse: everyone is talking about it
Where it’s found, how it’s discussed and what lawyers can do
Restrictive practices – aged care and NDIS
Come away with new understanding of the issues impacting older Australians in our society, and the role lawyers play in this area of law.
