About this opportunity
Advocare Incorporated (Advocare) is an independent, community based, not for profit organisation that supports and protects the rights of older people in Western Australia through information, advocacy and education. Advocare enables older people to make informed choices, understand their rights, resolve issues with aged care services, and access appropriate support and assistance.
