Introduction
This checklist is designed to help CHSP and home care providers to review their preparedness for the Bill for a new Aged Care Act.
The checklist has been prepared by Paul Sadler Consultancy, funded by the Central Coast and Inner West Sydney Sector Support & Development Projects. It has been reviewed by Russell Kennedy Lawyers.
National Sector Support and Development Network members are available for provider engagement to complete the checklist.
Purpose
The checklist is intended to be used as a self-reflection tool for CHSP providers. It helps organisations to consider of all aspects of compliance with the Aged Care Act.
It is designed to be used either by the organisation’s leadership alone, or by an SSD (or other consultant) assisting key personnel to reflect on their level of preparedness.
The checklist is made available in two formats: (1) the checklist format (this document), and (2) an action plan format in an Excel spreadsheet.


Sector Support and Development is funded by the Commonwealth Government Department of Health and Ageing under the Commonwealth Home Support Program.
