Help us make sure all aged care beds are counted to prepare for future demand.
We are building a national database on bed capacity, home locations and conditions to:
- inform policy and funding decisions by government
- address care shortages
- reduce hospital stays
- support Australia’s ageing population.
The census will take up to 30 minutes for each residential care home to complete and runs from 27 July to 6 September.
A link to the census will be emailed to you. Each aged care provider must use their individual link to complete the census.
