The Remote and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Aged Care
Service Development Assistance Panel (SDAP)
The Department of Social Services established this panel to provide practical support, specialist assistance and advice to aged care services located in remote and very remote areas and those providing aged care to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The service and advice that can be provided to these aged care services include:
-Care delivery
-Governance
-Business management
-Quality delivery
-Financial management
Each of our teams providing services under the SDAP is led by an aged care practitioner with broad operational and management experience in this sector. Depending on the nature of the project, we include consultants who have the specialty expertise required as listed above, in addition to extensive aged care experience.
Every Communio consultant who participates in a project under SDAP is experienced in working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in regional, remote and very remote locations. This experience is in addition to their aged care and speciality expertise.
Our success in this area is a result of our ability to build capacity in the client organisation - in individual staff, board members, and in the organisation itself, to provide long-term benefits.
We develop organisational capacity by working beside and with our clients as we create policies, procedures and supporting documents in plain English or in the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander language. We get input from the people who will use the documents, and include a formative evaluation component in the project to support continuous improvement.
