CARING FOR OLDER AUSTRALIANS
The Albanese Labor Government is caring for older Australians by delivering once-in-a-generation reform to aged care, making medicines cheaper, increasing pensions and bulk billing.
- Pensioners can work more hours without a cut to their payment
- $7.70 cap to PBS medicines with a concession card
- Energy bill relief
- Delivering better care in aged care with capped management fees, 24/7 nursing, star ratings and $11.3 billion to deliver a pay rise for aged care workers
- $4.3 billion to reduce wait times and increase places for Support at Home.
We’re making sure older Australians and their loved ones will be able to access a better aged care system that puts quality care and safety first.
