The Aged Rights Advocacy Service (ARAS) offers a free, confidential and state-wide service to older people, or their representatives, who are:

• living in residential aged care
• receiving Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) or Home Care Package (HCP) services
• at risk of, or experiencing abuse from family or friends
• living in a retirement village.

ARAS provides advocacy assistance to support older people to uphold their rights and their responsibilities.

Navigating the changing landscape of Aged Care Funding can be difficult and, sometimes, reading a payment statement can feel like reading a foreign language. ACSA and Provider Assist have partnered to deliver this course. Provider Assist will walk you through the main changes to Aged Care Funding that have occurred since the introduction of the Aged Care Act over 20 years ago, what these changes mean for your residents and, importantly, how these changes impact your facility’s funding entitlement and payment statements.

On-line webinar, presenting the findings of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety: Care, Dignity and Respect.
