Guide for use: | The primary setting where the aged care assessment took place, as recorded by the assessor during the assessment. Where assessments took place in multiple settings, the main one is recorded. This may occur if an assessment is postponed/interrupted and continued at a different location. There are different response options for home support and comprehensive assessments. If the assessment is occurring over-the-phone or via tele-health, record the person’s location at the time of the assessment. ‘Other community setting’ includes locations such as Aboriginal Medical Centres. |
