Ms Kelly, a proud Warumungu and Larrakia woman, is seeking feedback from older First Nations people, families, and communities about:
the aged care system
current and future aged care reforms
the design, functions, and authority of a permanent Commissioner
She invites your views on the following questions:
What changes are required to enable culturally safe, trauma-aware, and healing-informed access to the aged care system for older First Nations people, carers, families, and communities?
Should there be a permanent, statutory First Nations Aged Care Commissioner? If so, what should their functions and authority be?
You can get in touch via:
formal submission
post (including handwritten letter or notes) – Interim First Nations Aged Care Commissioner, GPO Box 9848, Canberra ACT 2601
Please send your submission, letter, email, audio or video by 5 pm AEST, Friday 21 June 2024. Or join one of the consultations in your area by clicking the link below
