ADA Australia – Panel Discussion

The Advocate gave me back my dignity and made my service provider accountable. You made such a difference to my life. My generation doesn't like to make a fuss, but the advocate handled everything so professionally, everyone was respected.

Aged Care Advocacy

I really enjoyed the training, it was delivered very professionally and was easy to understand. It gave us a good insight into the Adult Guardians role and its responsibilities.

Understanding Decision Making Training

The advocate was absolutely wonderful, thanks to him things have improved at the aged care facility for me.

Aged Care Advocacy

My father was very pleased with the advocates manner and her assistance. She gave my fathers issues prompt attention and helped support a great outcome

Aged and Community Care Advocacy

I'm 82 years old and live alone. Advocacy was wonderful for me as I didn't understand what to do and the advocate helped me.

Aged and Community Care Advocacy

I would like to thank my advocate for all the hard work she did in resolving my issues and for empowering me when I thought it was not possible.

Aged and Community Care Advocacy

My team now know how to interact more effectively with a client who has a mental illness. Our responses and services are more person centered.

mhWISE Training

I think its important to have someone like your advocate to speak up for homosexual people in residential care. Your card says you give people a voice and you did that for me.

Advocacy

The stress that occurred because of my provider was a real issue and caused me much anxiety. My advocate stood up for my rights and he gave me the strength to resolve the issue with them. Thanks so much.

Aged and Community Care Advocacy

I would still be extremely distressed if you have not come along to help. The entire process made me more aware of my rights and I am now aware of other services that can help me.
