Residential Aged Care Agreements

Accommodation Agreement
The Accommodation Agreement is a legal document between you and the aged care service provider that outlines the following:

• Details of the relevant accommodation costs, as well as the three payment options that you have available to you:
  • Lump-sum style ‘refundable accommodation deposit’ (RAD)
  • Rental-type payments called a ‘daily accommodation payment’ (DAP)
  • A combination of both.

• Other conditions that cover your accommodation payment, such as the details surrounding a refund upon your death or decision to leave the residential aged care facility.
