ADA Australia’s Brisbane Services
Aged Care Advocacy
Our Brisbane aged care advocacy services help people uphold their rights and have their voices heard. Our team can assist with helping people access appropriate care and support options.
We understand care services can also be challenging to navigate. Our services can help you understand and access residential or home care, help communicate care preferences, and address any concerns.
Our team also provides support in reviewing and negotiating care plans and making referrals for assessments and additional services. We can raise and address concerns about service agreements, fees, statements, and budgets. The ADA Australia Brisbane team can also assist in exploring available care options.

- Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP)

ADA Law Community Legal Service
At ADA Australia, our community legal service team at ADA Law can provide legal advice, representation, and non-legal advocacy regarding guardianship and administrative matters, including Enduring Power of Attorney and support before the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT) and Mental Health Review Tribunal (MHRT).
Our Brisbane team is also highly experienced in elder abuse matters in residential aged care. If you or someone you care for is looking for assistance, the ADA Australia Brisbane team will advise you and help your voice be heard.
Clients eligible for assistance with elder abuse from ADA Australia are any adult over 65 years old who is residing in residential aged care and experiencing or at risk of experiencing elder abuse from their formal or informal decision-makers, carers, or friends.
This service is offered to anyone living in Brisbane and the greater Brisbane region, including Moreton Bay, Ipswich, Logan, and Redland Bay Council areas.
