What is the Resident Classification Scale and what changes are being made to it?
The Resident Classification Scale is a system of classifying aged care residents based on their level of dependency and care needs. There are currently eight levels, with each level attracting a different amount of Australian Government subsidy. The scale will be simplified to three levels to form the basis of a new funding system to be introduced in 2006.
