"Restrictive practices, elder abuse, and guardianship update with Public Advocate John Chesterman"
In episode 36, I somewhat existentially ask "what *is* the Public Advocate?!".
And Dr John Chesterman, Public Advocate (Qld) kindly explains!
We chatted all about his work in driving legal and social change for adults with impaired decision-making abilities, including fighting elder abuse (and what to do if you suspect a client is at risk); NDIS reform; restrictive practices; and what we might expect from a number of critical reforms that are on the horizon.
