Aims
PAC has two main aims:
•	to purchase packages of services on behalf of individual clients which respond to their specific post acute care needs; and
•	to promote system change in the hospital and community based sectors which supports improved discharge planning and greater continuity of patient care.
PAC funding enables the purchase of individually tailored packages of health and community care services such as home nursing, personal care, allied health services and home help following discharge from hospital. As the PAC Program provides funding for the provision of additional post acute care services as required, it acts to augment the current service system, not substitute for existing services. Post Acute Care is a short term service (usually up to 4 weeks post discharge).
