I won't ask about my year 6 history essays! My question is addressed to the Prime Minister. Today I met with Christine from Penrith who has spent 16 years caring for aged-care residents. Christine says things have got much worse under this government and that residents are no longer getting the care they deserve. She's made the difficult decision to leave the industry. Why hasn't the Prime Minister addressed the chronic workforce shortage and the conditions affecting aged-care workers and the people in their care?
