If you are considering coming into one of Finely Regional Care aged care facilities, the first step is to be assessed by an Aged Care Assessment Service (ACAS).
This service is provided for people over 65 years of age and is made up of geriatricians (doctors specialising in aged care), community nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists. Together they provide these important services: - Specialist aged care assessment Information about community services and how to be referred to them. Referral to health professionals and specialist clinics. Information about respite care and how to arrange it.
The various professionals included in the ACAS look at and assess your particular needs which help them decide which level of care is best suited for you. They will then put their recommendations into an Aged Care Assessment Report (ACCR).
An ACAR is a report which is compiled after you have been assessed. It outlines your particular care and personal needs and other relevant information and recommends the most appropriate level of care that you need. When you come to see us at Finely Regional Care about entering one of our aged care facilities, this report will give us vital information which will help us decide which facility is best suited to you.
You can ask your doctor, a social worker or a community nurse to arrange an aged care assessment, or you can contact the Department of Health and Ageing. Or you can phone 1800 500 853 for details of the local ACAS and contact them directly. Or visit http://www.agedcareaustralia.gov.au/internet/agedcare/publishing.nsf/content/ACAT+finder
Simply phone us on 03 5883 4916 and we will send you an application kit which contains an application form for you to complete. It is a standard form, issued by the department of Health and Ageing. Once you have completed the application form we ask that you send it to us along with your Aged Care Assessment Report (ACAR) We will contact you once we have received your application and report.
