Together we can improve aged care

UnitingSA’s Client Advisory Committee (CAC) and Quality Care Advisory Committee (QCAC) use lived experience and feedback from clients, their carers and family members to influence the quality of our aged care services.

What is the Client Advisory Committee?

The purpose of the Client Advisory Committee (CAC) is to help us better engage with clients, and their carers or family members, of our residential and community aged care services. Members of this committee will help provide a lived experience perspective of the quality of aged care services.

The CAC will meet twice per year in April and October at our Head Office or online. Clients who are part of the CAC will be supported to attend the meetings.

What is the Quality Care Advisory Committee?

The Quality Care Advisory Committee (QCAC) will comprise one or more client representatives and relevant staff from Aged Care services at UnitingSA.

The purpose of the QCAC is to review the quality of services and provide feedback to the UnitingSA board. It will also meet twice per year in March and September at the UnitingSA Head Office or online.

If you would like to be part of the Client Advisory Committee or the Quality Care Advisory Committee you must be:

  • a client/resident of one of our Community Aged Care services or Residential Aged Care Facilities, or
