After Hours mobile primary care service for RAC Homes EOI

EOI-2526-03
Applications close 5pm 22 August 2025
Background

COORDINARE - South Eastern NSW PHN has received funding from the Commonwealth Department of Health, Disability and Aging to deliver a project that delivers Mobile Primary Care After Hours to Residents living in aged care homes in the Illawarra region. For this Grant, the Illawarra refers to Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama Local Government Areas (LGAs) only. 

This Mobile After Hours project is aimed at reducing unnecessary transfer to hospital during the unsociable after hours period when ACOS (aged care outreach service) and the resident’s usual general practitioner (GP) are not commonly available. 

Residential Aged Care (RAC) homes that are participating in the COORDINARE Mobile Primary Care After Hours Project will receive a financial contribution of $15,000 (excluding GST).
