early April - [Statement of Concern]: Statement of Concern - The Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic for People with Disability

Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability [original source]

 

The Royal Commission is deeply concerned about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on people with disability. The pandemic is an unprecedented public health, social and economic emergency that requires swift and effective action by governments, businesses and the community. Governments should ensure they take all necessary measures to ensure the protection and safety of persons with disabilities. …

The Royal Commission is of the view that Australian governments should seek input from people with disability, leading disability experts and advocates in developing their dedicated strategy, and in particular, in its COVID-19 Coordination Commission initiative’.

Their key areas of concern: access to health care; essential support services; accessible information; access to food and nutrition; employment and income security; and reduced oversight in closed residential settings.

“In talking to individuals and communities over the past six months, it has been clear to me that we need to co-design our suicide prevention approach in a way that is led by those with lived and living experience of suicide,” Ms Morgan said.

“We often think about services and systems and what is available, rather than truly understand what people need and what has worked, and not worked, for them in the past. We need to put people back at the centre of policies and planning.”’

Federal Department of Social Services [original source]

 

‘The review looked at changes that could be made to the law to streamline NDIS processes, remove barriers to positive participant experiences and introduce the Participant Service Guarantee. The review did not consider changing the design or intent of the NDIS. …

While there is support for the NDIS across all levels of government and the community, responses to the review often expressed frustration, dissatisfaction and sometimes anger about the way the NDIS has been implemented. It was clear that many of the benefits the NDIS seeks to achieve are yet to be consistently realised. … 

[The Review] found the NDIS Act and its accompanying Rules are broadly fit for purpose but that some areas of the NDIS Act are unnecessarily rigid and do not allow flexibility. The review made recommendations to improve NDIS processes and remove barriers in the law that make it difficult for the NDIA to effectively support people with disability.’

06/01/20 - [Report]: First Progress Report of the The Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability

The Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability [original source]

  

This First Progress Report of the Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability (the Royal Commission) provides an overview of the work undertaken by the Royal Commission since its establishment was announced in April 2019, and an outline of the Royal Commission’s program for 2020. A significant milestone will be the delivery of an Interim Report by 30 October 2020.

The Royal Commission is the product of tireless and persistent efforts by people with disability, their families, advocates, academics and many others who have long recognised that people with disability in this country are routinely subjected to violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation. They rightly have high expectations of what the Royal Commission can achieve. We intend to do our best to satisfy those expectations and to do so with empathy, thoroughness and transparency.

The voices and experiences of people with disability are at the centre of this Royal Commission. It is critical to the success of the Royal Commission that people with disability who have experienced violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation feel safe to share their experiences and receive the full range of supports to do so.

[Video Recording]: No blame. No shame. Surviving Suicide Loss.

The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre, UniSA [original source]

 

Losing someone close through suicide is a devastating experience and can be overwhelming and incomprehensible. While grief is a natural reaction to the loss of a loved one, it may be particularly complex in the case of suicide when the death may have come without warning. Grief can be complicated by feelings of regret about things done or not done while the person was alive, or of anger and disbelief that there was no chance to say goodbye. This Forum will explore and discuss what it means to experience, and survive, the loss of someone close through suicide.

This is a recording of a panel discussion moderated by David Roach OAM, Deputy Chair of the GriefLink Management Committee.

Panellists: JILL CHAPMAN, CO-FOUNDER MOSH (MINIMISATION OF SUICIDE HARM); THE HON JOHN DAWKINS MLC, PREMIER’S ADVOCATE FOR SUICIDE PREVENTION; IAN JAMES, PRINCIPAL ABORIGINAL MENTAL HEALTH ADVISOR, OFFICE OF THE CHIEF PSYCHIATRIST; PROFESSOR NICHOLAS PROCTER, CHAIR SCHOOL OF NURSING AND MIDWIFERY – UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

‘On the day the Commission was established, the Premier, the Hon.

[DRAFT Report]: Productivity Commission Inquiry into Mental Health

Productivity Commission [original source]

 

‘This inquiry is about the mental health and wellbeing of Australia’s population, the prevention and early detection of mental illness, and treatment for those who have a diagnosed condition. 

This inquiry is about a generational change. Community awareness about mental illness has come a long way, but the mental health system has not kept pace with needs and expectations of how the wellbeing and productive capacity of people should be supported. The treatment of, and support for, people with mental illness has been tacked on to a system that has been largely designed around the characteristics of physical illness. And while service levels have increased in some areas, progress has been patchy. The right services are often not available when needed, leading to wasted health resources and missed opportunities to improve lives.’
