I am writing about insurance costs for clients and carers.  For a client and carer to go for a social outing in States or Overseas. The insurance costs are that high that the client can’t afford to go.  I wish that to be addressed.

The other expense is the carers travel per kilometre to get to the client and to take them out. I live in a regional area and just to take the client to a movie, we have to travel 177 kms. The cost is a lot to take out of the package. The 177 kms is from the clients house of Midland (movies) back to his place in York. (I think in Regional areas the kms should be capped so both the client and carer win. Give extra money for costs for Regional area fuel and wear and tear.

Residential places for younger clients to be built so they don’t end up in aged care facilities.

The goal settings for some clients are totally unrealistic. I think when the client has a benchmark of what is comfortable for them, then continuing on with goals they can cope with, should be enough. They still need help to maintain their standard. So allowance should not be changed and the client shouldn’t receive more pressure.
