She said the leadership time would continue to focus its efforts on fixing the aged care crisis, particularly calling on the legislation of minimum staffing levels and skill mix.
‘In the lead-up to the Federal Election and as the Royal Commission into aged care continues, we will be fighting for change on behalf of our members and the vulnerable nursing home residents they care for each and every day.’
