Older Australians are increasingly vulnerable to financial misconduct—from assessment impersonators and fake invoices to identity theft and high pressure tactics. While new national reforms aim to strengthen protections, the complexity of the aged care ecosystem continues to create serious risks for consumers and families.

Join us for a timely panel discussion on ‘Fraud in Aged Care,’ bringing together researchers, practitioners, advocates, and lived experience perspectives. This free webinar will discuss regulation, emerging issues, systemic harms, professional responsibility, and the realities facing older people and their families. There will be time for audience Q&A.

Whether you study financial misconduct, work in the sector, or are supporting a loved one in aged care, this session will offer evidence based insights and practical guidance. We will explore how fraud occurs, why certain consumers are most at risk, and what can be done to strengthen ethical practice within the system.
