Time for a ‘Rethink’ in the NGO Sector for Older People
Social enterprise model and ‘confederal’ working needed in older people’s sector Organisations providing publicly funded services for older people need to develop their strategic approach
On February 29, 2024, Sage Advocacy held a seminar on Responding to the Challenges and Opportunities of an Ageing Society and Economy. Click the link to read about the event (including access to speaker presentations), and how its outcomes (alongside the Choice Matters report and Red C poll findings) will form part of Sage Advocacy’s submission to the Government’s Commission on Care for Older People.
Keep up to date with the work of Sage Advocacy, and on issues impacting on the rights of older people in our society.
Eg continuing care at home; housing issues; conflict; personal affairs.
Eg Nursing Home Support Scheme; safeguarding concerns; deprivation of liberty.
Eg complex hospital discharge; safeguarding concerns; adverse events; ‘next of kin’ issues.
Support for people coping with the lifelong effects of institutional abuse in early life.
Support with the transition from one place of care to another.
You can help Sage Advocacy to ensure that older people and vulnerable adults across Ireland can be sure of the support of an independent advocate when they need it most.
