  • Paul Fletcher Pf
    1 National Conference - PAUL FLETCHER PF: Well, thanks very much, Anthony and congratulations to you and to Youngcare, to Luke and the Summer Foundation for organising this very important event to discuss specialist disability accommodation or SDA. And congratulations to your two organisations and all the other organisations in the room, which are powerful advocates for the importance of quality housing choices for people with complex disability support and housing needs. In my view, the delivery of modern well-designed specialist disability accommodation, or SDA, at an increasing rate, is one of the most powerful ways in which the NDIS is helping Australians with disability to live better lives. With more dignity, more self determination, more engagement with the broader community, but quite simply, more joy in their lives. But don’t listen to me; listen to Liz who I met recently on a visit to the new unit accommodation she’s living in, in Fairfield, in Melbourne. Liz: I’m Liz, I moved in to my new apartment a month ago. It’s really exciting because it’s the first time I’ve lived anywhere on my own and it’s very, very cool. It’s a home instead of someone’s workplace. With the NDIS in conjunction with other organisations, to make things like this happen; it’s just so special. PF: So today, I want to speak firstly about the progress that we’re making with SDA including the changes we announced recently. Next, to discuss our plan for younger people in residential aged care and finally to report on how we’re doing in delivering overall on the promise of the NDIS.

  • Shelter Nsw Student Report – Younger People in Residential Aged Care
    NOVEMBER 2020 YOUNGER PEOPLE IN RESIDENTIAL AGED CARE amy sheridan for shelter nsw student internship report Prepared by: Amy Sheridan for Shelter NSW Level 1, 241 Castlereagh Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000 0 1 [email protected] +612 9267 5733 AMY SHERIDAN SHELTER NSW STUDENT REPORT – YOUNGER PEOPLE IN RESIDENTIAL AGED CARE This report was developed over a 600-hour work placement by Amy Sheridan who was undertaking her master’s in social work. It was developed for the use of Shelter N.S.W. and outlines the Australian issue of younger people living in Residential Aged Care (RAC) facilities. This report will provide a summary of the background of this issue and explain who some of these younger people are and why they ended up in RAC. The Australian system will be contextualized amongst some international examples, and some of the main funding options and issues will be explored. Finally, this report will analyse the reasons why RAC is inappropriate for younger people, and in closing, present some of the ways forward in responding to this issue, through pathways like housing, education and community. Background In 2019, Australia had 6048 people under the age of 65 living in RAC facilities, with an average admission rate of 42 people per week (Summer Foundation, 2019). These are people who have entered RAC due to a lack of appropriate high care facilities that can cater to their requirements as they experience intellectual, physical, psychological, or sensory disabilities (Dyer et al., 2019, p. 23). Many of these people acquired their disability during early adulthood and 80% never leave RAC once admitted (Summer Foundation, 2019, p.

  • Senate Inquiry Submission
    DRAT 2015 Youngcare Ltd SENATE INQUIRY SUBMISSION Senate Inquiry into the adequacy of existing residential care arrangements available for young people with severe physical, mental or intellectual disabilities in Australia Executive Summary The problem of young people residing in residential aged care (RAC) requires a whole of community approach from both government and non-government organisations. It is a problem that is felt equally throughout Australia, but disproportionally by young people with high care needs and their carers who represent some of the most marginalised members of our society. The issue of young people in RAC is a problem not only because it creates social isolation, financial hardship and inequity but also because RAC is unable to appropriately cater for the needs of a person in their younger years, and can contribute to creating secondary illnesses which inhibits further rehabilitation. Disunity between state and territory disability and health government departments, and the federally run aged care system are contributing factors to how this problem became so pervasive. Full implementation of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) offers potential progress on this matter, but will not provide a complete solution. While the reasons young people are placed in aged care varies, so too does the way in which we can assist them to exit the aged care system. Youngcare’s 10 years of dedication to solving this crisis has produced a collection of data and information that can elaborate on efficient ways to divert premature entry into aged care through micro grants, and offer insight to the process of assisting people to transition from aged care into more suitable housing options.
