Respect of the rights of older people in need of long-term care and assistance

AGE Platform Europe, together with 11 partner organizations from 10 different countries has developed a European Charter of the rights and responsibilities of older people in need of long-term care and assistance. For more information on the project, please consult the following webpage: http://www.age-platform.eu/en/daphne.

It is linked  to an Accompanying guide that provides information and examples on how the Charter can be implemented by caregivers, service providers, policy-makers and older people's organisations. At the end, a check list provides to the reader a summary of the different ways of implementing the charter. A list of good practices for each article has been selected for the guide, but all the good practices are available on that webpage.

You will find below all the good practices that AGE and the project partners have identified on the respect of the rights of older people in long-term care, according to each article of the Charter.
