Mistreatment in Aged Care Facilities

Mistreatment in Aged Care Facilities

We are investigating the extent and nature of mistreatment of residents in age care facilities. Mistreatment includes physical or verbal abuse, use of medications or restraint to control behaviour and financial abuse.

We need your feedback to help us protect our loved ones and ourselves.

Please fill in the following survey to help us better understand the extent of the problem better. Your responses will be anonymous and used to inform our submission to the Parliamentary Inquiry.

Please note: We are looking to hear from people who are currently living in Victoria and are 30 years old and above.
