Charter of Aged Care Rights

You have a right to receive high quality care and services and to always be treated with respect and dignity. 

These rights and more are protected by the Charter of Aged Care Rights. The Charter provides the same rights to all consumers. These rights apply no matter what type of Australian Government funded aged care services you receive. 

It is a good idea for you and those involved in your care to familiarise yourself with your rights. All providers of Australian Government funded aged care must comply with the Charter.
