Additional information
Aged Care Assessment Services (ACAS) are independent teams who assess the care needs of frail older people aged 70 years and over or 50 years and over for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Assessment teams are multi-disciplinary and can include health professionals such as medical officers, social workers, nurses, occupational therapists and physiotherapists. They conduct comprehensive assessments for those needing community services or aged care residential services. They assess for all restorative and potential care options.
