This minister has ignored the 2018 report of the Aged Care Workforce Strategy Taskforce, the 2019 aged-care royal commission interim report titled Neglect, warnings from the northern hemisphere, warnings from experts and unions, and warnings from Dorothy Henderson Lodge in March and Newmarch House in April. Isn't the 2017 report Elder abuse—a national legal response just another warning this minister has ignored?
