What was the purpose of the Stage 1 Report and Options Paper?
This combined Report and Options Paper was a Mapping Exercise which comprehensively reviewed the literature and fifteen (seven main government and eight other non-government e.g. ACHS-EQuIP, QIC, ISO9001:2000) quality reporting and monitoring systems currently in place in the community care sector across Australia and those used for Multipurpose Services. Another purpose of the paper was to develop options for enhancing and/or modifying those standards and a national framework to report performance against those standards.
