Sustainable In-Home Aged Care Design

The In-Home Aged Care market is becoming increasingly competitive including those with nationally-managed disruptive models. Consumers are increasingly willing to switch providers and seeking flexible and innovative approaches. With the increasing competitive market now and reform change, it is now time to review models for delivery of home care. The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission Sector Performance reports, show that Fees and Charges and Financial Statements consistently rate in the Top 10 complaints in home services. Also, in the Commission’s recently released document: Quality and Safety in Home Services – 5 Key Areas of Risk, one of the risks is the management of packaged funds. These are all essential reasons that your service could benefit from a review of the way Home Care Packages are designed for competitiveness, sustainability and growth. Reviewing Home Care Package design is also wise in the lead-up to the introduction of Support at Home.

Approved providers are required to meet legislation whilst offering consumers a wide range of choices in their package provision. Attendance at this contemporary webinar will provide attendees with a different way of thinking about designing their services.

This practical webinar has been designed to give you the knowledge and tools to package service offerings into relevant, sustainable and attractive products for Home Care Package consumers. The webinar will address excluded and included items in HCPs; the importance of a self-directed framework, linking assessment domains to care provision and how to ensure compliance with Standards and legislation.
