Aged care providers around New Zealand are campaigning in the lead up to the September General Election in support of increased funding for elder care so that caregivers’ pay can increase.

In New Zealand the average hourly rate paid to caregivers working for aged care providers is NZ$15.31 per hour.

The New Zealand Aged Care Association (NZACA) which is running the campaign aims to put pressure on political parties in the lead in to the election and the website outlines where each political party stands on the issue of funding care for the elderly, and specifically carers' wages.
