To ensure this community remains a safe space comments and posts are moderated. We ask that when you post a comment, you keep in mind the following:

  1. Be Kind and Courteous
    We’re all in this together to advocate for structural reform of the aged care sector. This website is intended to be a welcoming environment.

If you are going to comment, please try to add valuable discussion to the conversation. Be friendly, be fair and use common sense.
  2. No Hate Speech or Bullying
    Everyone needs to feel safe. Bullying, harassment or ‘combat’ of any kind will not be allowed. Degrading comments about things like age, appearance, race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, gender or identity will not be tolerated. Comments that can be interpreted as defamatory, indecent, offensive, profane, discriminatory, misleading, unlawful, threatening, personal attacks, name-calling, or abusive will be deleted.
  3. No Promotions or Spam
    This group is focused on reform. We will not accept posts that promote businesses, including aged care navigation services. Those who post advertisements or advertise themselves in comments may be removed.
