SOUTHERN CROSS CARE (TASMANIA) INC · Small home · Not for Profit

Overall Star Rating

Ranked 17 of 29 in Southern

The five ratings

Four measures combine into the overall rating. Residents' experience is worth a third of it.

Overall Good
Residents’ experience Acceptable
Compliance Excellent
Staffing Excellent
Quality measures Excellent

Worth knowing: no home in Australia holds an overall rating below 3 stars, and 69% sit on exactly 4 — so the overall star is a weak way to tell homes apart. The individual measures above, and the numbers below, do the real work.

Staffing

Every home has a mandated minimum of care minutes per resident per day. This is what it actually delivered.

Total care minutes per day 250 target 213 +37 min
Registered nurse minutes 56 target 44 +12 min
