Description

Webinar 3: Getting your care needs assessed for aged care services, in the OPAN Navigating the Aged Care System webinar series

**The webinar can be accessed here: https://vimeo.com/350872561

Navigating aged care can be tricky. People are often unaware of how to begin their aged care journey, and finding information on how to access, change and update services is not always easy.

The Navigating the Aged Care System Webinar Series provides practical information about Australian Government subsidised aged care services, including how to access these services and where to find the information you need make informed decisions. The webinars are intended to be conversational and interactive with panellists taking questions throughout.

Webinar 3, includes two parts that will both be held on 7th August 2019, with a half hour break in between. An ACAT assessor will join OPAN Educator, Maree Montgomery on the panel for both parts of the webinar.

Part 1 (2:00pm-2:30pm AEST) Overview of aged care needs assessments

You will learn about:

- What's involved in an assessment
- Where assessments take place and the importance of having someone with you
- Who undertakes the assessment: ACAT or Regional Assessment Service (RAS)
- Development of support plans
- Notification of assessment outcome

Webinar 3, Part 2 (3:00pm-3:30pm AEST) Understanding the two types of assessments: home support and comprehensive

You will learn about:

- Home Support Assessment for basic support in the home conducted by RAS
- Comprehensive Assessment for complex care in the home or care in an aged care home conducted by ACAT
