Each record has a unique DPS id
For easy reference these are also printed in the DPS Guide to Aged Care Books & Magazines and DPS Guide to Products & Services.

The DPS Guide to Aged Care website is an online guide designed to help older people and their families find accommodation, home care and community aged care facilities. Many times elderly people and their families will face a sudden crisis when they have sudden acute medical issues or sudden changes in their personal circumstances.

In response to the need for one place to conveniently and easily find solutions in this kind of crisis period, the information and resources in aged care here have been compiled over the years.

The online guide is constantly updated with new and useful information, but for those who prefer a more traditional form of information or to simply have a hard copy of it, we have published the DPS Guide to Aged Care book, which is designed to complement the website.
