Central Coast Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT)
The Aged Care Assessment Team is a team of health professionals who provide expert assessment and advice regarding the long term care needs of the frail aged . The main professional groups represented are occupational therapists, nurses and social workers. ACATs assess the whole care needs of an individual using a multi disciplinary and multi-dimensional approach. As part of the assessment process a person's medical, physical, social and psychological needs are considered before care approval is made. The needs and wishes of the person being assessed as well as those of his/her carer and family are an important part of an ACAT recommendation. Clients need to be assessed by ACAT before they can receive a Federal Government subsidy for Residential Care (either low or high care). A Community Aged Care Package (a coordinated package of community care, equivalent to low level residential care) and Extended Aged Care in the Home (the equivalent of high level care in the client's home)

I recently had a 5 day holiday for a family get together, and I had a friend from Sydney stay in my unit to look after my cat as I could not take here with us. Sadly, one of our neighbor's put a note on her car window, that she was not allowed to park the car there, and that she had been reported to Department of Housing. the spot she parked in is a spare spot, and not parking has been officially allocated to tenants. I spoke to dept of housing about this, and was told it was quite ok for me to have a visitor stay, and for them to use that car space and that they would notify all the tenants of this. But to date nothing has happened, and I have another trip away coming up soon, and really don't want this to happen again. Any advice would be appreciated.
