Aged Care Services – Specialist Dementia Care Program Cardiff (NSW) and Caulfield (VIC) Grant Opportunity
The Specialist Dementia Care Program (SDCP) is a new Australian Government initiative. The program will provide a person-centred, multidisciplinary approach to care for a small number of people exhibiting very severe behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), who are unable to be appropriately cared for by mainstream aged care services. The program will offer specialised, transitional residential support, focussing on reducing or stabilising symptoms over time, with the aim of enabling people to move to less intensive care settings.
This grant opportunity offers targeted non-competitive grants to the invited organisation to establish and operate two specialist dementia care units in Cardiff, New South Wales in the Hunter New England and Central Coast Primary Health Network, and in Caulfield, Victoria in the South East Melbourne Primary Health Network.
As this is a closed non-competitive grant opportunity only HammondCare is eligible to apply. This grant opportunity invites HammondCare to apply for funding to operate two services under the Specialist Dementia Care Program at the following two locations:
- HammondCare – Hunter New England and Central Coast Primary Health Network
158 Macquarie Road, Cardiff, New South Wales 2285; and - HammondCare – South Eastern Melbourne Primary Health Network
294 Kooyong Road, Caulfield, Victoria 3162.
