Abstract
This review examines Australian and international literature on older care leavers' experiences with aged care services, highlighting their preferences for home-based care that respects autonomy and personal history. It identifies systemic issues within aged care, including workforce challenges and a lack of tailored, trauma-informed support, that hinder effective care. The review underscores the need to incorporate care leavers' voices in research to inform policy and practice. Recommendations include adopting trauma-informed, care-leaver-centered services to address care leavers' unique needs and improve well-being and dignity within aged care settings.
