If you support someone receiving aged care services, are receiving care yourself, or thinking about your aged care options, knowing your aged care rights and what to do when this doesn’t happen is essential.

Elder Rights Advocacy (ERA) deliver free information sessions across Victoria to people receiving aged care services, their families or representatives, and the wider community, including retirement villages and seniors groups. Our group of professional Advocates deliver them.

During these sessions, you will learn how to address any issues you may have so that your care is safe, high-quality, and meets your individual needs. You’ll also understand your right to quality aged care, to live without abuse and neglect, and how to access Elder Rights Advocacy support if needed.
