Exceptional Circumstances

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission has temporarily modified our Regulatory Program, including the suspension of site audits to determine whether to accredit, not to re-accredit or vary the periods of accreditation for a service. 

In order to give effect to continuity of accreditation the Department of Health has, under Section 42.5 of the Aged Care Act 1997, made a decision to grant ‘exceptional circumstances’ to this service 

11 April 2023.

The service remains subject to compliance monitoring by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission.

Following a site audit the Commission made a decision on 05 September 2019 that this service met all of the Aged Care Quality Standards. The service is re-accredited for three years until 11 October 2022.

Serious risk decision

On 21 March 2019 a delegate of the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commissioner made a decision in relation to John Curtin Aged Care that failure to meet one expected outcome in the Accreditation Standards placed the safety, health or wellbeing of consumers of the service at serious risk.

An assessment contact was conducted on 14 May 2019 at John Curtin Aged Care to monitor the service’s progress. The Quality Agency found the service complies with all Accreditation Standards.

Serious risk is not an ongoing state; it is a statutory decision based on evidence at a point in time.

Following an audit we decided that this home met 44 of the 44 expected outcomes of the Accreditation Standards and would be accredited for three years until 11 October 2019.
