EOI - After Hours mobile primary care service for RAC Homes EOI

COORDINARE - South Eastern NSW PHN has received funding from the Commonwealth Department of Health, Disability and Aging to deliver a project that delivers Mobile Primary Care After Hours to Residents living in aged care homes in the Illawarra region. For this Grant, the Illawarra refers to Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama Local Government Areas (LGAs) only.

This Mobile After Hours project is aimed at reducing unnecessary transfer to hospital during the unsociable after hours period when ACOS (aged care outreach service) and the resident's usual general practitioner (GP) are not commonly available.

Residential Aged Care (RAC) homes that are participating in the COORDINARE Mobile Primary Care After Hours Project will receive a financial contribution of $15,000 (excluding GST)

To be eligible, your aged care home must:

•  Be located in Wollongong, Shellharbour, or Kiama
•  Hold current accreditation
•  Have an active ABN or ACN
•  Maintain adequate insurance
•  Be ready to commit staff time, leadership, and some extra admin support to help make this project a success

Spots are limited to 6 Residential Aged Care Homes, so we encourage interested RACHs to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) soon. Each home must submit its own application, and only those meeting all selection criteria will be considered.

To support this project, we're hosting an online industry briefing ask questions and learn more about the opportunity. Registration is available via this click here
