Star Rating
If you’re looking for the star rating of a particular nursing home, search for “Aged Care Homes” in a local area on the MY AGED CARE website. It will show you the star ratings in the search results. COTA Australia lobbied for the new star ratings system, and it was a recommendation of the Aged Care Royal Commission.
