How to choose a nursing home

For a subsidised place, get a referral from a hospital medical social worker, polyclinic or GP, or visit an AIC Link office. AIC matches you to a home with a vacancy, so location and timing may not be your choice.
Do the Household Means Test early to see your subsidy band: for citizens, 75% at PCHI $900 and below, falling to 0% above $3,600.
Visit at mealtimes and ask about staff-to-resident ratios, rehabilitation, dementia care and visiting hours.
Compare the full monthly bill: consumables, diapers, medication, escort to appointments and laundry are often extra.

Red flags

Unwillingness to let you see resident areas or meet the nursing manager.
Vague answers on extra charges beyond the monthly fee.
Residents left in bed or chairs for long periods with little activity.

Questions to ask before you book

Is this an MOH-funded home, and what will I pay after subsidy?
What is not included in the monthly fee?
How do you handle falls, hospital transfers and end-of-life care?
What rehabilitation and activities are offered each week?
