Retirement Village Contracts
- 2-3 hrs

Often people think that retirement villages are aged care facilities and therefore are regulated under the Aged Care Act. But this is not the case. Retirement villages are separate to aged care facilities and are regulated under the Retirement Villages Act only which does not provide the same protections as the Aged Care Act.
This session recording will have a closer look at the differences and the challenges that come with that for consumers.
