Aged Care Assessment 

ACAT assessment is an eligibility requirement to access Commonwealth-funded home care packages. ACAT undertakes a comprehensive assessment of care needs for older people needing access to home (community) care, and helps the elderly and their carers to determine what kind of support will best meet their needs.

Target group is older people, typically over the age of 65 or for indigenous Australians, people over the age of 50, or people who have an age related condition. Referral Procedure, by care recipient themselves or others:

  • The care recipient, carer, family must be aware of and consent to the referral
  • All referrals are to be made via MyAgedCare: 1800 200 422
