RSL LifeCare has welcomed the Australian Government’s commitment in additional support and funding across Residential Care and Veterans’ Services as part of the October 2022 budget overnight.
Millions of Australians rely on Residential Care and Veteran’s Services every day and it’s important to continue to look after those that have looked after and continue to look after so many.
RSL LifeCare Chief Executive Officer, Janet Muir said RSL LifeCare would work closely alongside Government and organisational stakeholders to ensure that safety, wellbeing and care continued to be a top priority for residents, staff and veterans.
“RSL LifeCare has operated for more than a century across New South Wales (NSW) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), and our focus has always been on supporting those who are in our care and part of our organisation,” Ms Muir said.
“This focus was reaffirmed by the Government’s funding commitments overnight across Residential Care and Veteran’s Services and I, along with all of my colleagues at RSL LifeCare, look forward to supporting programs that will enhance the lives of thousands of Australians and promote a positive quality of life.”
RSL LifeCare operates across NSW and the ACT, providing home care, together with operating retirement villages and Residential Care home for more than 7,500 residents.
RSL LifeCare, with the support of funding from RSL NSW, also provides a holistic and veteran-centric set of services, including Veterans’ and Families’ Hubs in Nowra and the Riverina regions, aimed at supporting veterans and their families make the transition from active service in the defence force into civilian life amongst local communities.
