Aged Care Capital Assistance Program - Residential-based Aged Care Services and Staff Accommodation
Tender ID: 579822
Tender Details
Tender Description
This grant opportunity will provide grant funding for infrastructure projects that will:
1. maintain or improve access to quality residential-based aged care services in:
- regional, rural and remote locations (MM 2-7)
- metropolitan locations (MM 1) where these services will provide specialised or targeted care to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders
2. deliver staff accommodation that supports residential-based aged care service provision in regional, rural and remote locations (MM 2-7).
It is designed to support providers in thin markets, where escalating building costs coupled with the ongoing costs of aged care delivery, including recruitment and retention, may limit opportunities to undertake infrastructure projects to support the delivery of quality and safe residential care services.
The department expects applicants will consider the National Aged Care Design Principles and Guidelines in guiding the planning and design for any residential-based aged care service projects under this grant opportunity.
Staff accommodation proposals must cater to the individual and varied needs of aged care workers, in safe, private and culturally appropriate premises.
