Benetas welcomes the three recommendations made by the Committee of Economic Development of Australia (CEDA) to address serious workforce issues facing the aged care sector. Today’s Duty of Care: Aged-Care Sector Running on Empty report calls for the implementation of a user-pay aged care system with income or asset thresholds, ensuring the long-term viability of the sector.
Not-for-profit aged care and community health provider, Benetas, has invited families and carers with loved ones in its residential aged care facilities to share messages of hope and love during this challenging time.
When doctors at the Royal Melbourne Hospital told Peter Cameron it was time for his wife to move into residential aged care, he didn’t hesitate to make the decision to go with her. Upon arriving at Colton Close, an aged care residence run by leading Victorian aged care provider Benetas, Peter knew he had made the right decision.
