Resident’s Experience Surveys

The next round of the Residents’ Experience Surveys (formerly known as Consumer Experience Interviews) will take place from February 2023.

These responses will inform the Residents’ Experience component in Star Ratings and contribute 33% to an aged care home’s overall rating.

The surveys are a chance for older people living in a residential aged care home to share their experience.

Selected at random, up to 20% of people living in each aged care home will be invited to participate. The surveys are conducted by independent organisation IQVIA, in partnership with Access Care Network Australia and Health Consult, on behalf of the Department of Health and Aged Care.

Responses from residents will be de-identified and collated to help residential aged care homes identify areas for improvement.
