This learning experience has been developed by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission (the Commission) as part of the suite of resources for partnerships in care. This learning is for partners, or potential partners in care, or for other visitors to aged care homes. It will introduce everyday visiting essentials to follow in a residential aged care setting to help keep you, the person you care for and others safe.
