Based on feedback from the aged care sector, older Australians and their families, the Department of Health and Aged Care has developed a revised version of the Aged Care Quality Standards. The revised standards aim to be:
- easier to understand
- relevant to more aged care services
- more measurable
- easier to implement
The department is now seeking feedback via an online survey to inform further strengthening of the Quality Standards.
Please complete the survey.
There will be opportunity to upload a written submission at the end of the survey should you wish to do so.
Resources to assist include:
- Consultation papers (summary or detailed versions)
- the revised Aged Care Quality Standards (summary or detailed versions)
Read the consultation paper in your language – Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Greek, Italian and Spanish.
