Is your service the best fit?
Being a provider of choice isn’t just about location, cost and quality.
It’s also about best fit.
When people find their best fit, they’ve found a provider who understands and supports their experiences, needs and preferences.
For older people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences, finding their best fit can be difficult.
The Specialisation Verification Framework can help
The Specialisation Verification Framework helps you demonstrate to older people that your organisation delivers inclusive services for people who identify with one or more of the special needs groups (listed in the Aged Care Act 1997).
The Framework supports you to develop your inclusive services and communicate them to older people.
By engaging with the Specialisation Verification Framework you’ll have a better understanding of how you can move towards inclusive service delivery.
The Framework is tremendously beneficial whether you apply for Verification or not.
Verification will be necessary when you’re ready to promote your services on My Aged Care as the best fit for people who identify with special needs groups.
