New Aged Care Quality Standards
Organisations providing Commonwealth subsidised aged care services are required to comply with the Aged Care Quality Standards (Quality Standards). Organisations will be assessed and must be able to provide evidence of their compliance with and performance against the Quality Standards from 1 July 2019.
The Quality Standards focus on outcomes for consumers and reflect the level of care and services the community can expect from organisations that provide Commonwealth subsidised aged care services.
To find out more click the link to the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission's website here.
Your Aged Care at Home holds information sessions to the public to explain in plain English what the new Aged Care Standards mean to you.
