Ageing and Aged Care Statistics

Aged Care Service lists for download

Lists of Australian Government-funded aged care services in downloadable forms including Microsoft Excel and plain text files.

From this page you may download files of information on aged care services subsidised by the Australian Government under the Aged Care Act 1997, including:

  • residential aged care services (aged care homes);
  • services that provide Community Aged Care Packages;
  • services that provide Extended Aged Care at Home; and
  • Multipurpose Services providing aged care.
The files also include services funded under the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Aged Care Strategy.

The files are current as at 30 June 2007 and are updated annually, usually in September/October. Please refer to the information page for an explanation of what is included and not included in these lists.

Each downloadable file contains:
  • the name of each service;
  • its street address;
  • the types of care provided:
  • the number of places in operation for each type of care at 30 June 2007;
  • the name of the approved provider of the service in which the service is based;
  • the Aged Care Planning Region of the service;
  • the remoteness classification of the service according to the Australian Standard Geographical Classification (ASGC), Australian Bureau of Statistics catalogue no 1216.0, 2001 edition; and
  • Australian Government recurrent funding for the service in 2006-07.
Note that some community care services are delivered in a differing region or state from that in which they are based and that some Multi-purpose services serve more than one location. These spreadsheets generally list places according to the location in which the service is based, rather than the region in which the service is delivered. Consequently, regional totals derived from these spreadsheets may differ from data published elsewhere in which places operated by cross-regional services have been divided between the regions in which the services are delivered.
