Ian Yates AM – Chief Executive Council on the Ageing (COTA) Australia
The Royal Commission was called in October 2018 and the Commission presented its Final Report on 26 February 2021, with the former Government responding in the Federal Budget on 11 May 2021. In the 2021/22 Budget, the former Government committed almost $18 billion extra over the next four years to increase the supply and funding of both home care and residential care.
In residential care there will be more staff spending more time with residents, better food where that’s not the case now, stronger clinical care standards, a new funding formula, and prices set by an independent authority. All providers will experience much greater transparency and exposure about services, fees, staffing quality measures and consumer experience.
The aged care reform process has been underway for a while, starting with the Labor Government’s 2012 ‘Living Longer Living Better’ package which heavily ramped up home care packages and introduced ‘consumer directed care’. This was followed by the Coalition Government’s 2018 Federal Budget package ‘More Choices for a Longer Life’, which COTA Australia partnered in developing.

COTA message
There will be at least 80,000 new home care packages by mid-2023, bringing the total number to 276,000 and the current home care waiting list will be gone. A new home care program will be developed by 2023 that will design individual packages for each person.
4 WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23Aged Care Guide
Amidst all this change an independent, unbiased resource such as this Aged Care Guide, together with the online directory AgedCareGuide.com.au assists you to make the best aged care choices for your specific circumstances and can help you take greater control of your care.
We are the leading advocate for much greater consumer choice and control in aged care. We had a major input to the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety and to the Federal Government’s response to the Commission’s Final Report.
“COTA Australia is the peak national advocacy body for older Australians across all areas of Government policy. In aged care we have been at the leading edge of reform pressure for over a decade.
COTA Australia’s partnership with DPS is also focused on improving consumer information and choice about services and providing opportunities for direct consumer feedback and comment on services.

Residential aged care
explainedcareAged
If your needs exceed the level of support offered though this program, then a Home Care Package can offer higher intensity support to help you stay at home.
At Seaforth Gardens Aged Care Centre, our goal is to provide a unique experience of choice, lifestyle and belonging for all people as they age. We don’t have clients, only family. We’d love to really get to know you –your clinical, social, emotional and spiritual needs, your experiences, hobbies, likes and dislikes. This goes on to enrich our own lives and makes us who we are and what we do – providing care from the heart, since 1880.
Basic assistance is offered through the CHSP. See page 21 for information about how the CHSP may be able to assist you.
Respite care is provided by residential aged care homes and community care services in your own home, under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP).
Short term
Other names for residential aged care include aged care home, nursing home and aged care facility.
See page 89 for advice on retirement accommodation.
There is a comprehensive list of Government funded aged care homes included in this Aged Care Guide, as well as private providers.
Daily care is generally not included but some providers may offer support services at an additional charge or this can be accessed separately through Government funded home support options.
There are also a number of non Government funded residential aged care homes, often referred to as Supported Residential Services (SRS) or supported and assisted living complexes. See page 88 for more information.

Retirement living
Retirement villages are not to be confused with nursing homes. They are clusters of villas, units or apartments, and you will need a reasonable level of independence to move into a retirement setting. Generally, the land is owned by an operator and residents enter into a lease type arrangement so they can live there for as long as they wish.
9WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23 AgedCareGuide.com.au
Entry into a Government funded residential aged care home requires an assessment by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT).
See page 59 for information about residential aged care, how to access it and what you may need to pay.
These are all subsidised by the Australian Government.

GuideCareAgedtheusetoHow
How do I find what I’m looking for?
The index on page 160 can help you to find the main information topics in the book and can direct you to the different directory tables for aged care homes, retirement villages, in home care options or product/services in the back of the Guide.
Searching for other services . . .
Visit AgedCareGuide.com.au for a complete list of services available near you.
The articles up to page 112 will help you become better informed about aged care, community care and retirement living.
The information featured in this 22nd edition of the Aged Care Guide Western Australia will inform you on a number of considerations when choosing accommodation and care options.
How to use the Aged Care Guide
Cultural search: If you are of non-English speaking background, or prefer to find a home or service specific to your cultural needs, refer to the multicultural listings on pages 149 151.
The Aged Care Guide also includes a comprehensive directory of residential aged care homes (see pages 118 137); retirement accommodation (see pages 138 –139); home care packages (see pages 140 –148); and facilities or services specific to your cultural background (see pages 149 151).
If you are looking for In Home Care Services, Day Therapy Centres, Centre Based Care, or other Products and Services, you can find this in grid form in the directory section (pages 152 –156).
They liaise with other service providers, GPs/specialists and community support networks to make sure desired outcomes are achieved.
RAS allows assessments to be conducted independently from service provision and ensures assessors consider the full range of options when responding to you and your carers’ needs and goals.
The aim of the RAS is to ensure the services respond to you and your carers’ needs and support you in retaining or regaining skills that enable you to continue living independently in the community.
Some of these needs may include assistive technology, therapeutic interventions, community care services or other support organisations.
After an assessment has been completed you should be given a referral code/s which you need to access services. Alternatively, RAS can make a referral to a CHSP provider following a discussion about the availability of appropriate services and a discussion with you about your preferences.
The RAS team ensures your diverse needs are addressed through appropriate assessment, or can identify the need for other relevant assessments.
The service also provides care coordination if you have multiple providers or more complex needs.
Find out more about CHSP on page 21 or call My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 to request a RAS assessment.
RAS plans and coordinates exit from the CHSP and transfer to other appropriate service systems including Home Care Packages and/or residential care if required.
What services does RAS provide?
The RAS helps to identify you and your carers’ needs for support and your goals for greater independence and wellbeing. It provides in home, face to face assessments of new and existing clients/carers.
Referrals
You might like to have some support, a partner, relative or friend, present during the assessment. An interpreter can also be arranged.
To access basic Government funded in home support under the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) you need to be assessed by a RAS.
How the assessment works
13WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23 AgedCareGuide.com.au (RAS)ServiceAssessmentRegional
Regional Assessment Service (RAS)
Together with the assessor you will work out a Home Support Plan detailing your needs and goals, and what services are needed to achieve those.
An assessor from your local RAS will visit you for the assessment. They will ask you questions about your personal situation, health, and if you’re already receiving some support. The RAS assessment is a free service.
Referral code
If the ACAT considers you eligible for services, you will be given a referral code. The service provider of your choice will need this referral code to access your client record on My Aged Care and manage the referral. Make sure you ask for the referral code if you haven’t been given one.
You will be asked a series of questions to work out how much and what sort of help you require with daily and personal activities, to determine the best care option for your situation.
ACAT cannot make recommendations about individual homes or community services, they can provide you with information to assist you to make decisions.
Call My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 if you would like to organise an ACAT assessment.
Not satisfied with the ACAT?
If you have a complaint or are not satisfied with the assessment or recommendations, you should advise the person in charge of the ACAT. If you cannot reach an agreement, you can appeal the decision.
A member of your local ACAT will visit you in your home or in hospital to assess your needs.
The ACAT will discuss the result of its assessment with you and the options that would be most suitable, as well as what is available in your area.
With your approval, the ACAT will also contact your local doctor to gain more information on your medical history to assist with the assessment process.
The ACAT is staffed by doctors, nurses, social workers, occupational therapists and other health professionals.
If there is no package of the assessed level immediately available, you may be offered a package at a lower level or CHSP services to help you while you
You will be sent a letter by the ACAT explaining how you, or someone acting on your behalf, can appeal.
If you are no longer able to manage at home without basic assistance, the ACAT helps you, and your carers, determine what kind of care will best meet your needs.

The service can help you find information about subsidised aged care options including the different types of Government funded services available, eligibility for those services, and the associated costs.
My Aged Care
My Aged Care is a Government operated website and contact centre for people who would like Government support to access in home support, community or residential care.
The service provider of your choice will need this referral code to access your information and manage the referral. They’ll be also able to access the funding allocated to you.
If you are not given a referral code make sure you ask for one so you can discuss your needs with your preferred service provider.
To assist you in your search, an independent information source like the Aged Care Guide publications and the linked AgedCareGuide.com.au website can help. These resources give a comprehensive overview of all care options and care providers available.
If you have been found eligible for a Home Care Package there may be a wait time before a suitable package becomes available.
Once you’ve been assessed and found eligible for services, whether they’re for a Home Care Package, Transition Care or to access a nursing home, you should be given a referral code.
The referral code is linked to the type of service you are eligible to access. If you need the support of multiple services, you will need multiple referral codes, one for each service.
You will receive a letter from My Aged Care to advise you when you have been allocated an available package.
Referral code
My Aged Care then assigns you with an Aged Care user ID and keeps a central client record which includes your assessed needs and the Government funded care services being provided. Visit myagedcare.gov.au or call 1800 200 422 for more information.
A provider won’t be able to start charging you fees until they begin delivering services to you or you have accepted a place in an aged care home.
To receive assistance, you, a family member, carer or client representative can register your details with My Aged Care so that you can be assessed to access any Government subsidised services.
In the meantime, you may be allocated an interim package at a lower level or choose to self-fund your supports.

In home support
To assist with your care needs is a Government priority, so you can continue living in the comfort of your own home where possible.
Home care products and services range from assistance with daily chores to personal care, providing meals, transport assistance, as well as equipment such as a ramp, walking frame or shower rail to help you live
Support at home
To help you live independently in your own home and community for as long as possible, there are many home care products and services available.
There are a variety of support at home options available that can meet your specific needs.
Consumer Directed Care
All Home Care Packages are delivered on a CDC basis and the funding for a package is allocated directly to you instead of to the provider.
CDC allows you to determine how much involvement you wish to have when managing your package. It also allows for more transparency around how your package is funded and spent.
Consumer Directed Care (CDC) gives you and your carers greater say about the types of care services you receive and the delivery of those services.
homeatSupport
Providers are required to work in partnership with you to create a package of services that meets your goals and needs, and gives you the information you require.
This information should assist in choosing the best provider for you, as well as changing providers if you need.
The Government continues to significantly increase support for home and community based aged care with particular integrated packages available. Private businesses also offer home care services.
20 WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23Aged Care Guide
All home care services you receive should include ongoing monitoring and reviews from the provider to make sure your package is meeting your needs.

This agreement is made between you and your provider and covers information such as the care and services you will receive and how much they will cost.

Home Care Package Daily subsidy amount Annual amount
Level 1 $ 25.15 $ 9,179.75
Level 3 $ 96.27 $ 35,138.55

How much will it cost?
The Government contributes the following amounts to each person receiving a Home Care Package (1 July 2022 rates):
Level 2 $ 44.24 $ 16,147.60
This amount may be supplemented with an additional payment for people with higher care and specialised support needs such as a Dementia, Veterans’ or Housing supplement.
Rates are reviewed generally in March and September each year in line with changes to the Age Pension. This applies to each person receiving a Home Care Package, even if you are part of a couple.
It is important to know that even though a HCP can only be managed by an approved provider, the care can be delivered by any provider, even one that is not supported by the Government. This gives you more choice as to who delivers your care.

Self-managing your HCP

The person who knows best about you and your needs, is you. After making decisions for yourself throughout your adult life, it makes sense that you would want to maintain that control by self-managing your Home Care Package (HCP).
You may decide to organise and manage the coordination of your own supports in your package rather than utilise a case manager that would commonly deal with your package on your behalf and direct the care and support you receive.

For instance, if you have been diagnosed with dementia, it may not be the best option for you. However, you can ask your partner or loved one to self-manage your package on your behalf.
Maybe this is more cost effective for you or there is a waitlist for the Government service you are trying to access.
Your provider has an obligation to provide you with all the information you need to successfully self-manage your HCP and support you through the self-managing process.
Private home care organisations provide a wide variety of services including Registered Nurses for complex care needs and carers for companionship, personal care, housekeeping, cooking, and outings.
There is no limit to the number of hours of care provided each week and you can generally increase or decrease the time as your requirements change. With an agreed notice period, you are not required to pay for shifts you do not require.
Rather than a Government funded service, you may choose a private home care provider and pay for services out of your own pocket.
It is important to keep in mind that some providers may have policies around self-management, so you should definitely shop around and enquire with providers about how they support clients who wish to self manage their package.
This means you can set boundaries and expectations with your provider on what they should be covering and what tasks you will be organising. When considering self-management of your package, you need to consider whether you have the time and energy to undertake this role.
While private home care may seem expensive, you may find that it is more cost effective than other institutional alternatives. There is a wide variety in the level of quality and cost of home care companies.

Private home care services are arranged directly between you and the service provider. You pay for all the services provided and there is no Government subsidy.

As you age, your calorie intake will decrease. This can be a bit difficult because you still need to maintain the same amount of nutrients, if not increase them.
Good nutrients can reduce the risk of developing a lot of diseases and illnesses, like weakening muscles and bones, or chronic health problems, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, or osteoporosis.
Changes in your diet for optimum nutrients
These types of foods are rich in vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates and fats that are vital to an ageing body.
Making the right food choices doesn’t mean you can’t still indulge and enjoy your favourite treats. It’s all about balance.
Fibre is another essential for older people in maintaining a healthy digestive system, which is also beneficial to good cholesterol levels.
Minimising salt intake and reducing processed food is important. Junk food generally has a lot of calories but no nutritional value. Keeping hydrated by drinking enough water is also vital to a healthy body.
The best option for reaching optimum nutrition goals is to create an action plan for healthy eating. Consult your doctor or dietitian to organise the best fit for you.
Food and your body
Taste and smell can also decrease as you age, so to counterbalance that you need more flavourful food or pleasant smelling food to increase your appetite.
However, never substitute supplements for food, they should only be used to assist.
Maintaining a healthy body is all about making good choices, such as being active and eating healthy, which also assists with living independently for longer.
Poor nutrition can result in weight loss or weight gain, and impact the security of your immune system making the likelihood of catching illnesses, like the flu, more common.
Good nutrition is important at any age but it becomes even more important as you get older.
Eating nutrient-rich foods could include vegetables and fruits, beans, lentils, nuts and seeds, low-fat dairy, and lean meat.
If you aren’t getting enough vitamins from your food, it may be worth talking to your doctor about adding specific supplements into your diet to help you get to the levels you need.
The importance of nutrition

Food is such an important part of the human experience, but it can be harder to continue enjoying food when your body doesn’t process what you enjoy the same way it did when you were younger.
Food is a huge source of fuel for the body to keep it moving and energised, it’s important to, fill the tank, with what your body needs.
Since your immune system already weakens as you age, it’s important to put as many preventative measures in place as possible.

Drink six to eight glasses of fluid a day, as shying away from drinking to try to stop bladder control issues can actually exacerbate the problem. Make sure there’s enough fibre in your diet and limit tea, coffee and alcohol. Take your time to empty your bladder properly, don’t strain or go to the toilet ‘just in Incorporatingcase’.exercise in your daily routine can have a good effect on your bowel movements and strengthen your pelvic floor.
Create good habits
It’s important to keep good bladder and bowel habits to reduce the risk of incontinence. The Continence Foundation of Australia recommends making changes to your diet and lifestyle that can make all the difference in managing your incontinence.
While incontinence can appear at any stage of your life, the risk of developing incontinence is more increased in older people. Generally, incontinence is linked to other health conditions, such as dementia, diabetes, heart conditions, or prostate problems.
What is incontinence?
Whilst incontinence affects people of all ages and genders, it is more common in women, with studies showing 80 percent of people with urinary incontinence are women, and problems become more common as you age.
Continence
If you have either, you should talk to your doctor for professional advice on how to manage the condition.
The good news about incontinence is that, in most cases, it can be either cured or better managed so it doesn’t disrupt your everyday life.

The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder and bowel and play an important role in bladder and bowel control.
There are two types of continence problems: Urinary incontinence, which can appear in different levels of severity, for instance, it could involve ‘leaking’ when you laugh, sneeze, or cough, or it could mean complete loss of control over your bladder Faecal incontinence, referring to bowel leakage or involuntary bowel movements but may also include excessive wind or straining
With one in four Australians experiencing bladder and/or bowel control problems, incontinence is nothing to be ashamed of.
Where to get help?
If you’re experiencing bladder or bowel control issues it’s important to have a continence assessment to rule out any underlying medical problems.
Common problems include leakage from the bladder and/or bowel, urgency, waking frequently at night to pass urine, and constipation.
If you receive support through the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP), you can access continence advisory services, or if you have a Home Care Package (HCP), you may be able to receive funding from the Government for incontinence aids.
Speak to your GP or call the National Continence Helpline on 1800 330 066 for more information.

It is also recommended that you visit as many homes as possible, just as you would when buying or renting a house. This will enable you to gauge the feel and culture of the home.
For people with dementia, it is important to ask a home whether it offers separate or secure dementia specific units or wings. Some nursing homes may have a secure garden area specifically designed for people with dementia, which is generally attached to the secure dementia unit.

Daily care fee
Anyone can make a complaint about anything that may constitute a breach of the service provider’s responsibilities to past or present residents.
Complaints
Aged care homes charge a range of fees to cover the cost of care, accommodation and living expenses, and these can vary enormously between facilities, and from resident to resident.
Both your income and financial assets affect your entitlements. The income and asset tests are combined, to ensure a consistent fees policy.
Understanding the rules and seeking specialist advice from an aged care financial advisor to minimise costs is recommended. See page 99 for more information on financial advice.
Costs for residential care
This will address the issue of asset rich, income poor residents paying for all of their accommodation and nothing for care, and the income rich, asset poor residents paying for their care but not for accommodation.
In addition, the daily fee contributes to the costs for personal care, including assistance with daily living such as bathing, dressing and toileting, assistance with mobility aids, therapy, and certain medical and pharmaceutical services.
If you have concerns or are unhappy about the standard of care you are receiving, you or your representatives are strongly encouraged to firstly take all complaints to the facility management for resolution. It’s always best to address concerns rather than leaving it to escalate. If you don’t feel comfortable to deal with it yourself, you can ask an advocacy service to help you.
The cost of care is divided into three parts – daily care fees, accommodation payments and a means tested care fee.
homescareAged
The maximum Basic Daily Fee for all permanent residents who enter an aged care home is 85 percent of the maximum base rate of the Age Pension for a single person.
As a resident in an aged care home you are asked to pay a daily fee as a contribution towards the cost of care and living expenses, such as meals and refreshments, cleaning, laundry, heating and cooling, as well as social activities.
This is the same amount you will be charged if you’re staying in a nursing home for a temporary stay as a respite resident. It is generally adjusted each March and September at the same time as the Age Pension.
homescareAged
Not everyone pays an accommodation payment. It depends on the value of your assets and income at the time of entry into care.
If you have more than $52,500 in assets and income, you can be asked to pay an accommodation payment, but you must be left with at least $52,500 in assets after your payment (rates as at 1 July 2022).
66 WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23Aged Care Guide
If you do receive income other than your pension, you will be assessed by Centrelink, or Veterans’ Affairs if you are a veteran, to determine how much extra you can be asked to pay as an income tested fee.
If you were a permanent resident in an aged care home, prior to 20 March 2008, you will continue to be subject to the pre 20 March 2008 rules governing the Basic Daily Fee unless you are discharged from permanent aged care for a continuous 28 days.
Depending on your income and level of care, you may also be asked to pay an income tested fee as part of the daily fees. However, this does not apply to respite residents in aged care.

How much will I pay?
Even when the value of your former home is included as an assessable asset, its value will be capped at $178,839.20 (July 2022 prices). It is only
This contribution amount can fluctuate depending on if your income or assets change.
If you can afford to, you will pay a basic fee of up to 85 percent of the maximum base rate of the Age Pension for a single person, a means tested (your income and assets combined) contribution to your accommodation, and a means tested contribution to your care.
There are annual and lifetime caps on the means tested care fee. There is an annual cap of $29,399.40 that will apply to your means tested contribution to your care costs, together with a lifetime cap of $70,558.66 (1 July 2022 rates).
The maximum means tested contribution will be allocated toward your accommodation payment until the full cost is paid and then toward your care fee.
The family home will continue to be exempt from the aged care assets test if occupied by a spouse or other protected person.

Refundable Accommodation Deposit (RAD)
You have a choice of three options, however, if you start with one option and change your mind, you have up to 28 days from the date you move into the care home to decide how you wish to pay.
The MPIR is set by the Government and is updated every three months –as of 1 July 2022, it is 5.00 percent.

The balance of the deposit is guaranteed to be refunded when you leave the home, but only after any amounts which have been used to pay for agreed services have been deducted.

This is a single payment made to the care home and works similar to an interest-free loan.
In this option, you pay a periodic payment (usually on a monthly basis) for your accommodation; it is calculated based on the daily rate of the RAD.

for nursing homes, decide what features are important to you. Are you looking for an extra service facility, a specific cultural environment or a facility with pets?
The person in charge at the aged care home will either ring you, your carer or family directly, or phone the social worker if you are in hospital. You may be asked to make a decision within hours because there are usually other people also waiting. You, or the relevant hospital worker, will need to arrange for your transfer to the home as soon as is practicable.
Waiting for residential care
You can also use residential respite as a way of finding out about the quality of care at a nursing home before deciding if the home is a good place for you to move into.
You can do this yourself or you can hire a placement consultant to do this for Whenyou.searching
As soon as you have been approved by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) for Government funded residential care, you can begin looking for your future home.
When you have narrowed down which homes would suit your needs and wants, it is best to apply to a number of homes to increase your chances of finding a place quickly.
Aged care homes cannot predict or know when a vacancy will occur, so it is important to keep in regular contact with the aged care homes to ensure they are aware you are still interested in admission to their home.
If you’ve engaged the services of a placement consultant they will monitor vacancies for you.

If you are looking to move into a home with your spouse, is this provision available?
Are clothes laundered on or off site?
Be aware that if you move into an aged care home that’s not your first choice, your priority on the waiting list of your preferred home will drop.
Is the home clean, fresh and in good repair?
How many staff work at the home and what is the night time ratio of staff to residents?
From the date of acceptance you may be charged for your care and be eligible to receive financial assistance from the Government.
Are the staff warm and friendly? You want to be able to feel at ease and comfortable in communicating with the staff.
There are a number of things to consider when deciding which aged care home will best suit your needs.
Does the room have access to a private phone line, internet connection or pay TV?
Are the floor coverings clean and fresh, or is there an odour throughout the home?

Do they offer single rooms with ensuite?
What personal items and furnishings can you bring into the home, and what provisions are there for storage of personal items?
The following is a brief checklist:
Inspect the kitchen if possible, and find out if meals are cooked on site or are delivered.
Are the meals flexible and will they meet your special requirements?
Be sure to enquire about the range of activities available and entertainment programs. These are vital for your ongoing wellbeing. Equally beneficial are outdoor areas or gardens; if relevant, check whether they are secure.
Is the home secure, particularly at night?
Does the home have the provision for you to age in place and remain as your care needs increase?
Are there spaces for you to meet with family and friends and to celebrate special events?
Is the room temperature comfortable for you, and are you able to control your own room temperature?

What can you bring with you?
During the assessment a staff member will gather information including medical conditions, family history, food preferences, social and recreational likes and dislikes, and interests.
Personal items
Having personal belongings around you may help you to feel at home in your new environment.
It is important that you bring all prescription medication you’re currently taking with you on admission. Care staff will manage and administer the medication to ensure safe and quality use of your medicines.
Mobility and wheelchairs
Continence aids
Residents can bring with them their preferred electrical and electronic items. Each item will be checked, tested and tagged for use.
Bring enough clothing to allow for items being washed as it might take a couple of days before clean laundry is returned to you. Make sure your clothes are machine washable and labelled with your full name.
Medication
Some people may like to bring family photographs, their favourite films, books, music or other treasured items.
This information will be used to create a care plan. The care plan is updated regularly and you can request to see a copy at any time. Family members and carers are welcome to assist in identifying social and care needs.
Clothing
The process of moving in is often referred to as the ‘admission process’ and starts with an initial introduction, orientation and assessment.
Radios, TVs, computers, digital clocks
Wheelchairs, scooters, walking frames, and other mobility aids will be assessed to ensure that these are appropriate to your current situation.
The maintenance and upkeep of scooters and wheelchairs is your responsibility.
Residents with higher level care needs who require products for the management of incontinence will have these provided by the aged care home. Other residents may be required to purchase these items.
Moving into a home
Your aged care home will already have most of the furniture and furnishings, such as beds, chairs, wardrobe, curtains and floor coverings, so it may be helpful to directly ask the home what you can bring with you.
Multiple activities
You can continue to enjoy your usual activities outside the nursing home, such as meeting friends in your favourite coffee shop.
Family and friends
Find out prior to moving what extra personal belongings you can bring.
livingDaily
As well as adjusting to new people, there may be some changes to your daily routines, such as slightly different meal and shower times.
Your family and friends are always encouraged to visit and many nursing homes also have special areas available for private functions. This means you can still hold special events for family and friends.
While most homes do not allow residents to have their personal pets, many homes now have ‘live-in’ animals such as cats, dogs and birds. Some nursing homes also arrange for a variety of animals to visit.
Partners and pets
Some homes offer rooms so couples can continue living together even if they have different care and support needs.
However, the choice is yours as to how social you want to be. You can choose to be social in the communal areas and spend time with other residents or simply find a quiet corner or remain in your room.

Chances are you’ve moved from living in a house on your own or with a partner, so you’ll need to get used to a few more people being around.
While areas such as the dining room and lounge are communal, your room is your own. Nursing homes positively encourage you to bring personal items for your room, such as pictures and smaller pieces of furniture.
If you are thinking about moving into a nursing home you’re likely to experience a massive range of emotions, varying from relief and excitement to uncertainty and apprehension.
Social aspects and routines
Nursing homes offer many activities such as exercise classes, religious services, bingo, arts and craft, concerts and outings. It doesn’t mean you have to take part, you still decide.
Many nursing homes have strong links to the local community. You can choose to get involved with activities such as meeting local school children or people from other groups.
Generally life in a nursing home will be easier for you, and many residents have reported they actually enjoy an enhanced quality of life and improved social life.
Living in a nursing home will be different and it may take a while for you to settle into your new life.
It’s your home

The Resident Agreement is a legal agreement between you and your aged care home.
Before you move in, an aged care home will offer you a Resident Agreement to sign, which may cover things like the services you will receive, the fees to be paid and the rights and responsibilities you have as a resident of the home.
Resident Agreement
While there is no time limit for signing the Resident Agreement, it is in your best interest to finalise the Resident Agreement as soon as you can, as it covers your rights and responsibilities. Since the Resident Agreement is a legally binding document, it’s important you understand everything in the document before you sign it.
You will need to let your aged care home know straight away, in writing. You will still need to pay your care fees and charges for care you’ve received during the 14 days.
Can I withdraw from the Resident Agreement?
Should you change your mind, you can withdraw from the Resident Agreement within 14 days of signing.
AgreementResident
77WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23 AgedCareGuide.com.au
If you understand your agreement and want to sign it, but are physically unable to, you can ask someone with the legal authority to sign on your behalf, such as someone who holds Power of Attorney for you.
Changes can only be made to the agreement if both you and your aged care home agree.
Your Resident Agreement should include the following: the policies and practices used to set your fees and charges; the level of daily fee you’ll be asked to pay; any extra services you’ve agreed to receive, and their costs; any circumstances where you might be asked to leave and how the aged care home will help you find somewhere more appropriate; your rights and responsibilities as a resident in your new aged care home; your aged care home’s responsibilities to you as a resident; how the aged care home will deal with any complaints you, your carer, friends or family may make; and any other matters agreed between you and the aged care home’s manager, within the requirements of the Aged Care Act 1997.
Signing the agreement
If you have any questions, you should ask your new aged care home. It’s their responsibility to make sure the agreement offered to you is clear. You can also ask your family, friends, carer or a legal practitioner to help you understand the terms of your agreement.
If you choose to enter into a Resident Agreement, you don’t have to sign it at the time it is offered. You may want to take time to ask your friends, family, carer, financial advisor or legal practitioner for help to go through the agreement, although you don’t have to.

When you have received approval by the ACAT, you may apply directly to the aged care facility for respite.
You will need to book this respite in advance, although in the case of emergencies, it can be organised quite quickly.
The cost for respite in a Government funded aged care home is the same Basic Daily Fee as for a permanent resident of the home. This amount is currently $54.69 per day (July 2022 rates), which is the equivalent of 85 percent of the single maximum base rate of the Age Pension, regardless of whether you are a pensioner or not.
There is no income and assets test or additional accommodation charge to access respite in an aged care home. This only applies to permanent residents of an aged care home. For respite in an ‘extra services’ home you may be asked to pay an extra fee to cover the cost of the higher standard of Forservices.moreinformation
about respite options and how to access them, contact the Carer Gateway on 1800 422 737.
A booking fee may also be charged to assist in securing a place. This is a pre-payment of respite care fees, not an additional payment, and it cannot be more than a full week’s fee or 25 percent of the entire stay’s fee, whichever amount is the lowest.
Go to page 42 to read about respite options in your own home or community.
Cost
Although residential aged care homes are allocated respite places, they are not required to keep these solely available for respite provision.
Access to respite care is based on eligibility and need.
Usually, you may have up to 63 days of Government funded respite care in any financial year, and it may be possible to extend the care period by up to 21 days at a time, if deemed necessary by the ACAT.
Residential respite
Taking a break
Taking some time off from caring is crucial and known as ‘respite’. Respite care offers the opportunity for both you and your carer to take a break. This may be for a few hours, a day, a night or a few weeks.
You can also use residential respite as a way of finding out about the quality of care at a nursing home before deciding if the home is a good place for you to permanently move into.
To receive respite care in an aged care home, you require an assessment by an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT), except in emergencies. See page 14 for more information about ACAT.
respiteResidential
Extra services
Aged care homes that offer extra services are listed in the residential table starting on page 117.
Other providers may offer extra services as an optional package that you can choose or cancel at any time.
Some aged care homes provide ‘extra services’, such as a higher standard of accommodation, increased entertainment options, and more diverse food choices.
Services delivered and cost may vary between providers and they should be outlined in your Resident Agreement.
In this case, switching from general residency to extra service residence within the same home, does not change the accommodation payment you have already agreed to when entering the home and the provider cannot charge a new or additional accommodation payment.
Additional services
Some providers may offer rooms with a non-optional extra service package. You can only take up the room if you agree to and pay for the extra services offered.
Extra service fees are set by the provider and approved by the Australian Government. This is an additional charge on top of the basic daily care fee, accommodation payment, and any means tested fee.
Fees
81WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23 AgedCareGuide.com.au servicesExtra
All people in aged care homes have the option to purchase additional services, such as entertainment or lifestyle choices, for an extra fee. Providers can not charge additional service fees for anything that is part of the normal operation of the nursing home and you have to agree to these charges before they are delivered.
‘Extra service’ only refers to the standard of accommodation, meals, food, and entertainment, and not to the level of care which is legislated to be of a high standard across all aged care homes.
Extra service homes have approval from the Australian Government to offer these additional hotel type services and they come at an additional cost to the resident.
In some cases, the whole of the home is ‘extra service’, while in others, a distinct part of that home, such as a separate building, wing or unit, is dedicated to extra services. Some of the extra services you might be offered include: A bigger room internet daily newspaper satellite TV phone choice of meals selection of beverages including wines, beer, and spirits special therapies such as massage or aromatherapy leisure/entertainment facilities

Partners in Culturally Appropriate Care (PICAC) is a national initiative, funded by the Australian Government, designed to improve aged care service delivery for older people from CALD communities.
Partners in Culturally Appropriate Care
Meeting the needs of the nation’s older people from CALD backgrounds has been a growing focus of the Australian Government.
Cluster facilities
There are also culturally specific aged care facilities that have formally entered into a contract with the Australian Government to, wherever possible, meet the needs of a specific cultural group.
This transition can become more challenging for older people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds requiring access to residential and community aged care services that are sensitive to meeting their specific cultural, spiritual, dietary and linguistic needs.

Enhance the quality of care provided to residents from CALD backgrounds in residential aged care facilities
Meeting the needs of all cultures
Promote and facilitate access to residential aged care facilities for people from CALD backgrounds
Improve communication between staff and residents
With an increasing ageing and migration population, it is essential that Australian aged care services and communities have the capacity to respond to the unique needs of people from CALD backgrounds.
Maintain dietary customs according to the CALD backgrounds of residents’ religious and cultural preferences
For many older Australians, leaving their home to move into residential care is a lifestyle change that can lead to an emotionally challenging experience.
Provide social and activity programs that appropriately cater for the needs and interests of CALD residents
Providing suitable cultural care has been associated with huge health and wellbeing benefits for this growing group of older Australians, which has led to the Government’s introduction of a number of initiatives.
The aim of clustering is to:
See pages 149 –151 for a list of aged care homes and home care package providers in WA who can meet the needs of people from a range of cultures.
Better access for older CALD people to culturally appropriate residential and community care services

Breaking language barriers
Healthcare professionals in General Practice treat patients from a diverse range of cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
A significant proportion of the Australian population speak a primary language other than English and patients with limited English proficiency may be less likely to adhere to medication regimes and follow-up plans.

They may also have a decreased understanding of their diagnosis, and overall, less satisfaction with their care. Access to high quality medical interpreter services may improve the quality of care for these patients.

Older CALD people having a greater capacity to make informed decisions about residential and community based aged care
LGBTIQ – Through the National LGBTI Ageing and Aged Care Strategy, the Government aims to ensure lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and questioning (LGBTIQ) people have access to the same options in aged care that are available to all Australians.
Rural & Regional clients – Services offered in rural and regional areas will depend on the needs of the whole community and sometimes aged care, health and community services are combined to meet local health needs.
Aged care providers are required to consider the needs of these groups in the provision of care:
Special needs groups
The ‘National Ageing and Aged Care Strategy for People from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) Backgrounds’ helps providers deliver quality care and aims to make culturally appropriate aged care more accessible. See pages 149 –151 for a list of culturally appropriate homes and services.
Financially disadvantaged – If you have genuine difficulty paying aged care fees and charges, financial hardship provisions may apply These allow for your fees and charges to be reduced or waived. Homeless – If you are currently homeless, or if you’re at risk of becoming homeless, there are Government funded services that can help solve your housing problems, or assist with financial or legal issues.
There are a number of groups of people that the Government recognises as ‘special needs’ groups when it comes to aged care services.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (ATSI) – The care needs of older ATSI people can be quite specific and there is a cultural element that needs to be considered in the delivery of care. See pages 149 –151 for an overview of service providers that have indicated to cater for ATSI clients.
Because of their experiences in institutionalised care, aged care has been flagged as an area that can cause distress and anxiety. Culturally and Linguistically Diverse people (CALD) – Aged care services that cater specifically for people who are culturally and linguistically diverse might have staff that speak a foreign language, have specific cultural activities or meet spiritual needs.
Veterans – Veterans have a ‘special needs’ status to support complex medical requirements including high levels of emotional and cultural support in old age, as a result of a veterans’ wartime experience. Contact the Department of veteran’s Affairs on 1800 838 372 or visit www.dva.gov.au for information about support for veterans.

Care leavers – A care leaver is a person who, as a child or youth, spent time in institutional care or other types of out of home care like orphanages, children’s homes or foster care.
Disability – If you have a disability, are over 65 years of age and currently receive support through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), visit ndis.gov.au or phone 1800 800 110 to find out what services are available to you.
Carers are always available to help out with daily housekeeping chores such as cleaning, vacuuming, clothes washing and ironing.
While some residential aged care homes don’t cater for couples, supported living communities can offer the capacity for couples to stay together in their own home, even if they require different levels of care.
Registered Nurses can prepare suitable care plans individually tailored to your health care requirements, including regular health checks, medication management, wound and skin care, palliative in home care, illness prevention, pharmaceutical support and medication reminders.
There are various factors which may determine your transition to a particular supported living community.
Care Communities

Some supported living communities promote themselves as ‘Care Communities’. These are unique villages with the look and feel of a retirement village and the care of a nursing home.
If you already receive home support benefits before moving to a supported living community you can stay with your current home care provider.
Acquiring one of these homes, which is not Government funded, is surprisingly easy. There is no need for asset testing or income testing, and also no need for an assessment by the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) that nursing homes require.
Run by approved providers, you can access Government funding for home care services offered in the comfort of your own self-contained home in the village or purchase private home care services through the provider
No asset-testing or ACAT assessments
Staff at supported living communities
The community centres offer many comfortable facilities, including lounge areas, libraries, television, games and activities rooms and tea and coffee facilities.
However, unlike a retirement village, you’ll have access to various levels of personal care and nursing care, but this is provided in the privacy of your own home, a choice not available in nursing homes.
Choosing a supported living community
It’s important to remember, the facility you will be happiest at will not necessarily be the most expensive. The right community for you is the community where you feel ‘most at home’.
Supported living communities combine the best advantages of retirement villages and nursing homes, to provide a new and welcome choice for seniors.
In a supported living community you buy and have a leasehold title to your own home, as in many retirement villages.

The size and levels of accommodation vary – from self contained independent living to serviced apartments.
Serviced apartments are generally one or two bedrooms and provide residents with some daily living assistance. Services may include cleaning, laundry and assistance with personal care. While a small kitchenette is usually included within the apartment, meals are provided in a dining room setting.

Serviced apartments
villages are owned and operated by the private sector or not-for-profit organisations to produce a profit or surplus.
Think about the type of village you wish to live in and what you can afford on a continuing basis. It is essential that you ask questions to understand the financial implications of ‘owning’ a unit in a village.
Retirement villages are designed for people aged over 55 as an alternative housing and lifestyle option. They are popular with people who feel they need more security, support or company, but want to maintain their independence.
Residential aged care
89WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23 AgedCareGuide.com.au
Some retirement village complexes also offer residential care accommodation, as well as Home Care Packages. You will need an aged care assessment to access this care. Go to page 26 to read more about the Home Care Packages or page 59 for information about aged care homes.
The village is funded by the residents, who ‘purchase’ their villa or apartment under one of the tenure arrangements.
Independent Living Units (ILU), also known as villas or apartments, are designed for active retirees. They range from one to four bedrooms and may be within a high or medium-rise complex, terrace housing arrangement, stand-alone or semi-detached.
Donor funded villages are normally owned and operated by not-for-profit organisations or church groups. They include an element of charitable subsidy and entry is generally restricted to the needy.

The various forms of occupation or ownership rights are referred to as ‘tenure’. The legal forms of tenure include Strata Title ownership, leasehold estates, licences to occupy, freehold or company share arrangement with related residency entitlements.
The cost of entering a village depends on the facilities and services offered. Monthly service and maintenance charges also apply and you may have to pay for extra personal services like laundry.
livingRetirement
To reserve a villa, a nominal deposit is required and the village will have a policy on how long it can be held for you.
Choosing a village
The village will deduct a ‘deferred’, ‘departure’ or ‘exit’ fee at the time of settlement of sale or re occupancy of your villa. This fee forms part of the purchase price, but its payment is deferred until the end of the occupancy.
Departure/exit fee
There are many fees and charges associated with living in a retirement village. Ensure you are provided with full details of all applicable charges. These costs may include upkeep of facilities, staff, council and water rates for common areas, security, and village building insurance. In addition, the charge may also contribute toward a ‘sinking fund’ for major repairs and improvements.
If you enter into a binding arrangement with the village, the deposit will be part of the purchase price.
91WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23 AgedCareGuide.com.au
Before moving into a village, you will need to pay an entry contribution which is refunded if you move out of the village. However, a Deferred Management Fee (DMF) usually applies, and is deducted from the amount you receive back. This must be specified in the entry agreement.
Deposit or entry contribution?
Fees and charges
Some retirement villages offer accommodation rental units, sometimes known as periodic tenancy, although these are generally reserved for people with limited financial resources and are usually income assessed.
When you have found a village that appeals to you, get to know the management and staff as well as the residents’ committee and request a copy of the village rules.
Sense of community
Depending on the village, some of these activities may include exercise classes, card afternoons, personal training, craft groups, plus outings to galleries, movies, and events.
Most retirement villages have a great sense of community and while you are encouraged to participate in activities and join social events, it’s not obligatory to go to everything on offer.
Ownership
The amount is calculated using a formula that generally involves a percentage of your/your successor’s entry cost multiplied by the number of years of your occupancy.

Feelings of guilt
At the same time many family members feel guilty about not being able to look after their loved one anymore. They feel overwhelmed by the aged care system and can’t give the assistance that is required.
The journey into aged care is often a challenging and emotional time. Not only for you, the person going into care, but also for family members, who have sometimes cared for their loved one for a long time.
Placing a family member into care can be life changing. There are many factors – physical, social, psychological and financial – that may arise which families sometimes find too difficult to cope with by themselves.

Reoccurring questions such as ‘what are your options?’, ‘what will it cost?’, ‘will you keep the house and rent it out or should it be sold?’ and ‘what will happen to your Age Pension?’ can require urgent answers during what is often the busiest time of your life.
Aged care choices are complex and the decisions to be made can seem overwhelming. Making the wrong decisions can come at a high price, both emotionally and financially.
Aged Care Financial Advice Specialists
Many older Australians take up an aged care bed within one month of being assessed for residential aged care. This is often triggered by an unexpected event, such as a fall, or a decline in health.
These can be further complicated by the impact that a move to care has in terms of the pension paid by Centrelink and the fact that the family home is treated differently for pension purposes than for aged care purposes. Throw in the payment/deposit system – Refundable Accommodation Deposit (RAD) or a Daily Accommodation Payment (DAP) – negotiating various fees with a facility, and filling in Centrelink forms, and things can quickly become overwhelming.

Important questions to ask
adviceFinancial
While every situation is different, there are some common elements of aged care financial advice which professional consultants often provide to their clients,Strategiesincluding:tofund accommodation payments
The best financial strategies and options will depend on your specific circumstances, objectives, and situation.
What licenses, credentials or other certifications do they have?
How an expert can help
Will they provide their advice in ‘plain English’ and in writing?
By understanding the rules and being able to apply them to individual circumstances, financial advisors are able to save their clients thousands of dollars.
Decide to sell the home before understanding the Age Pension and aged care fee impact.
Negotiating with aged care facilities
Do they specialise or have experience with aged care?
Choose how you will pay the aged care fees before understanding all of your options.
Will they deal with the Department of Veterans’ Affairs or Centrelink?
How much do they charge?
Some important questions you should ask before engaging the services of a financial advisor include:
Minimising nursing home fees
Financial modelling of multiple care options
Things you ‘should not’ do
Maximising Government pensions
Review and planning of tax implications
You should be open with your financial advisor about your financial situation and what assets are available, so your advisor can provide the best advice for your situation.

Instead seek help from a Certified Financial Planner who is experienced in aged care.
Allow or enable the dominant family member to influence the Incorrectlydecisions.assume that all decisions must be made before you can get the care needed.
Is the service a once-off or an ongoing service?
That is why, when choosing a financial advisor you should also consider their decisions are considerate and measured as opposed to emotional or impulsive, and actively listen.
A financial advisor can help you focus on the information and issues that are important to you and your specific financial situation.

It is a plan which involves you considering who you want to be executor of your estate (the person in charge of your Will), who you want to benefit from your estate, your funeral wishes and who you want to look after your financial and personal/health matters if you were to lose capacity during your lifetime, for example by way of dementia or stroke.

Effective estate planning ensures your assets are protected and distributed to the right people according to your wishes. Your Will is one of the most vital documents in this process.

A well prepared and executed estate plan can not only save your estate unnecessary costs in the future but can also save your loved ones from unnecessary stress after your death.
Estate planning is the process in which you decide what you want to happen with your estate, known as your assets, when you die.
Getting your affairs in order is an important part of your life planning, yet over half of Western Australian adults haven’t planned for what might happen to them if they lose the mental capacity to make decisions, or what will happen to their assets after they’re gone.
Estate planning
If you die without a Will, or your Will is invalid, your estate will be treated as an ‘intestate’ and your assets will be distributed under the WA intestacy law to your surviving relatives after all your debts have been paid.

The Public Trustee is an impartial statutory authority that has been helping Western Australians and their families look after what is important to them, for over 70 years. Give yourself peace of mind. Make or update your Will and Enduring Power of Attorney today, to ensure your loved ones are protected.
A properly drafted, up-to-date Will is the only way that you can be sure your assets will be dealt with as you wish when you die.
If you feel unsure or unable to address your concerns with the service provider, you can ask an advocacy service to help you. An aged care advocate can assist you to exercise choice and control over your care services and work with you and your family on the best way to address your concerns with a provider.
Advocacy
Most of the time aged care services work well and the people who use them are happy with the service they receive.
104 WESTERN AUSTRALIA 2022/23Aged Care Guide
Enduring Power of Attorney and Guardianship
Advocacy
While a family member can step in at this time and start assisting you with decision making, they may lack the legal authority to make some decisions.
By making an Enduring Power of Attorney and an Enduring Power of Guardianship, you can nominate a trusted family member or friend, or an organisation in the case of an Enduring Power of Attorney, to step in and make decisions on your behalf.
For more information, contact the Office of the Public Advocate on 1300 858 455 or visit publicadvocate.wa.gov.au, or contact the Public Trustee on 1300 746 116 or publictrustee.wa.gov.au .
Most people know you should write a Will to make sure your assets are distributed according to your wishes when you die. But what happens if you are left unable to make decisions for yourself due to accident, illness or other circumstances?
Nevertheless, we live in a society where each and every one of us, regardless of our age, has rights as citizens and individuals.
In WA, an Enduring Power of Attorney is limited to making decisions about your finances and property only. An Attorney in WA cannot make personal, lifestyle and treatment decisions.
Supporting the rights of older people
To appoint someone to make personal, lifestyle and treatment decisions in WA, you need to make an Enduring Power of Guardianship (EPG). An Enduring Guardian can make decisions around where you live, what services you engage, and provide consent for health care services and treatment. Similarly, an Enduring Guardian cannot make any financial or property decisions on your behalf.
You must have full legal capacity to make an Enduring Power of Attorney, Enduring Power of Guardianship or Advance Health Directive document, which means you understand what the document is and what it does.
However, sometimes a problem may arise, and you may need help to speak up and have the problem resolved. Many people feel uncomfortable raising a complaint or concern, but it is important to address your concerns early and not leave it to escalate. This can be particularly difficult if your complaint is about the care or services that you are dependent upon for meeting your most basic needs.

Dementia can happen to anybody but is much more common after the age of 65. Dementia is not a normal part of ageing.
Good care depends on how well the care facility responds to the residents’ individual needs, including their physical, social and mental wellbeing.
For people with dementia, their memory loss affects their adjustment to new places and persons. The move to residential care should be considered before a crisis forces a more urgent response.

“ “
Nezha Delorme, Amana Living Client Services Manager
Professionally trained. Naturally kind.
When Annie lost her hearing, she began to lose her connection with Jack, too. I just had to do something.
“Annie had a stroke and lost her hearing. It became so hard for her to communicate with her friends and family, and it was especially hard on her husband, Jack, who loves her dearly and is her prime carer.
During my training I’d learned how relationships can become strained as physical or communication difficulties arise. So, with the help of our IT team, we created a solution. We got an iPad for Annie and showed them how to use dictation software that converted Jack’s spoken words into text. It brought so much happiness back into their lives. And into mine.”

Like most people, Joan found getting care for her husband at home really complicated. Until she called me.
If you’re also finding all this a bit complicated, just call me, and we’ll sort it out together.”

Leonie Demunk, Amana Living Customer Care “

“Joan was finding it harder to care for her husband Arthur, as his needs increased. She was also finding it overwhelmingly complicated to get the added support he needed to continue living at home. My professional training and hands-on experience at Amana Living meant I was able to explain things in plain language and help her through each of the steps, just like we’ve done for thousands of other people.
