Aged Care Diversity Framework - LGBTIQ+ Health Australia

Aged Care Diversity Framework

The Aged Care Diversity Framework is a high-level document that provides guidance to service providers, consumers, government and peak bodies on how to adequately address the specific needs of all people with diverse characteristics and life experiences.

The Framework seeks to embed diversity in the design and delivery of aged care. It addresses perceived or actual barriers to consumers accessing safe, equitable and quality aged care.
