National evaluation of the Retirement Villages Care Pilot: final report

An Australian Government initiative, the Retirement Villages Care Pilot (RVCP ) has trialled the provision of flexible care packages into retirement villages in metropolitan, regional and rural locations across Australia. The evaluation found that RVCP packages deliver a more comprehensive range of services than Community Aged Care Packages, and are able to deliver service levels ranging from a low-level HACC service of one type of assistance up to that of a typical Extended Aged Care at Home package, or higher.
