To be eligible for the funding available through GrantConnect, providers must include independent business advice as part of their application either from:
- our free, independent and confidential Business Advisory Service, apply by 21 January 2022, or
- another business advisory service.
Alternatively, outcomes from the department’s Aged Care Financial Monitoring and Business Assistance team can be used.
The Business Improvement Fund gives short-term grants to eligible residential aged care providers experiencing financial challenges to improve governance and operations. The grants support small to medium size providers (7 or fewer facilities) located in regional, rural and remote areas.
