Serious risk decision
On 17 September 2018 a delegate of the CEO of the Australian Aged Care Quality Agency made a decision that failure by MiCare Ltd to meet five expected outcomes in the Accreditation Standards in relation to MiCare Avondrust Lodge has placed the safety, health or wellbeing of care recipients of the service at serious risk.
An assessment contact was conducted by the Quality Agency on 6 December 2018 at MiCare Avondrust Lodge to monitor the service’s progress. The Quality Agency found the service complies with all Accreditation Standards.
Serious risk is not an ongoing state; it is a statutory decision based on evidence at a point in time.
