Lantern Alliance Quality Standards Symposium - QS 4: The Environment

Access to the meeting is online via Zoom.

Quality Standard 4: The Environment

In 2025, Lantern Alliance will be running a series of comprehensive, online, symposiums designed to engage key stakeholders, industry professionals, and thought leaders in meaningful conversations about the challenges, opportunities, and best practices for implementing and complying with the strengthened Quality Standards.

Each monthly symposium will focus on one of the Quality Standards and its connection to the food, nutrition, and dining experience. As a part of each session, we will be hosting a panel session which will bring together leading experts, professionals, and residents to discuss the implications of the strengthened standards for aged care providers, carers, catering staff and of course residents.

QS 4 - INTENT

The intent of Standard 4 is to ensure that older people receive care and services in a physical environment that is safe, supportive and meets their needs. Effective infection prevention and control measures are a core component of service delivery to protect older people, their family, carers and workers.
