The Inclusive Service Standards were developed by the Centre for Cultural Diversity in Ageing to assist aged care providers in the development and delivery of inclusive services to all consumers.
They provide a framework for services to adapt and improve their services and organisational practices so they are welcoming, safe, and accessible.
By meeting the Inclusive Service Standards, aged care providers will be able to:
- better understand the diverse interests, goals, and needs of their consumers;
- empower consumers to make informed decisions about their service provision;
- deliver flexible, accessible services free of barriers and discrimination; and
- implement the Consumer Directed Care approach and achieve quality outcomes for all consumers.
For any enquiries or advice about implementing the Inclusive Service Standards, please contact us.
The following resources have been developed to help organisations learn about and implement the Inclusive Service Standards:
