Placing People First:
​Diversity, Person Centred Care and a Rights Based Approach

Placing People First - Diversity, Person Centre Care and a Rights Based Approach

​

 


​Welcome to this short video which explores how person-centred care, diversity, and human rights intersect within the context of aged care reform.

In addition to highlighting key findings from a rapid review of person-centred care, diversity, and human rights, we provide some practical insights to support inclusive, respectful, and rights-based approaches for older people accessing or receiving aged care.  We hope this short video helps you to reflect on how your service delivers care – and how reforms are reshaping expectations.
