00:00The way in which STAR Ratings for aged care homes have been created contains a
00:07high degree of integrity and you can rely on the assessment. What the STAR
00:15Ratings do is they provide a common basis for making that assessment and
00:18it's important because you need confidence. I think feedback is the best
00:22way from people that have actually been in there and what they say. They're
00:28honest in what they say and from their relatives as well.
00:33Being more proactive, looking at the options, the STAR Ratings, you can
00:38assess well what are the options, what are the quality level I want to aspire
00:41to for my loved one. So if they plan it in the future it's all ready for them.
00:48With the STAR Ratings you know the quality of care that this facility will
00:51deliver and it was you compare like with like and help you to make the best
00:55decision and just having this bit of clarity is really really powerful.
