The Role
The Care partner understands activities that contribute to the overall safety, wellbeing, health and quality of life of an older person.

This includes self-managed clients who require a base level of care management in order for the provider to meet their obligations. Care management involves initial and ongoing care planning, service planning and coordination, development, review and evaluation of a client’s care plan and quarterly budget, monitoring of services provided, provision of information and education about the client’s care and services, support to connect to health and other services when needed, support to undergo a Support Plan Review, if needed.

Enhanced continuity of care – ensure communication, collaboration and smooth transitions between providers and care settings
Increased client empowerment and satisfaction - engage client’s and their representatives in decisions regarding their care in a timely and supportive manner
Optimised use of resources – Ensure consolidated service planning and information sharing
