Aged care in_australia_introduction_feb_08jgoodburn
Aged care in Australia has evolved significantly over the past century. Originally, destitute elderly were incarcerated in asylums with basic support in the late 1800s. By the 1950s, the government began providing subsidies to charitable organizations to offer hostel-type accommodation. Major reforms in the 1980s established standards and principles to guide assessment, eligibility, and funding for community and residential aged care services. Today, aged care consists of informal, community, and residential care options to support older Australians aging in place.

3. Applicant ORI Anuenue Hale Inc.
Application for Grants and Subsidies
If any item is not applicable to the request, the applicant should enter "not
applicable ".
I. Background and Summary
This section shall clearly and concisely summarize and highlight the contents of the
request in such a way as to provide the State Legislature with a broad understanding of
the request. Include the following:
1. A brief description of the applicant's background;
ORI Anuenue Hale Inc, which was founded by Susanna F. Cheung, was
established in 1993 as a private, not-for-profit corporation located in Central
Oahu. Its primary mission is to promote the general welfare of the elderly, the
disabled and the economically disadvantaged. It also assists in providing relief
to the poor and needy by offering programs in education, and vocational training,
which enables them to break through barriers inhibiting their potential for self-
sufficiency.
ORI Anuenue Hale currently provides health and wellness programs, therapeutic
and social activities, housing and supportive services for the elderly and the
disabled. Education, job skills training, employment and supportive services are
also offered to the economically and socially disadvantaged.
The agency recently completed a Wellness Center at its Wahiawa location, which
offers Adult Day Care services as well as health and wellness activities for the
elderly and severely disabled. ORI Anuenue Hale Inc. also offers an affordable
ADA recreational facility within its 40-acre grounds for the usage of the elderly,
the severely disabled and the economically disadvantaged. Operational funds are
being sought for maintaining these facilities and implementing program services
for the elderly, the disabled and the disadvantaged in our community.
ORl Anuenue Hale's programs and facilities help to restore or maintain, to the
fullest extent possible, the capacity of the elderly and the severely disabled to
maintain a quality of life in the community and minimize the need for premature
institutionalization.
Application for Grants and Subsidies
4. Applicant ORI Anuenue Hale Inc.
2. The goals and objectives related to the request;
The goal ofthis request is to obtain the funds necessru.y to continue operating OR!
Anuenue Hale's ADA wellness and recreational facilities as well as its supportive
services for the elderly, the severely disabled and the disadvantaged. OR!
Anuenue Hale offers supportive services that help people the elderly, the severely
disabled and the disadvantaged maintain independent, meaningful and dignified
lives in their own homes and communities for as long as possible.
Currently, the agency does not have the necessary funding to support basic
operational and supportive programs costs due to the tough economic times and
limitations in income-generating activities/resources for these facilities and its
programs.
With some financial resource for operations, OR! Anuenue Hale will be able to
continue to operate its facilities and provide supportive services to the target
group.
The following are program measures which support this overall goal:
a. Prolong the time during which the person with special needs can choose to
remain in the community by assisting the family caregiver to secure help or
obtain relief with caregiving tasks.
b. Increase the level and quality of care and services for the elderly, an
underserved, rapidly growing population in our community.
c. Support the family caregiver's efforts in a way that improves their quality of
life and that of their care recipient.
3. State the public purpose and need to be served;
The public purpose of this grant-in-aid request is to provide supportive services to
the elderly, the disabled and the disadvantaged in our community which could
include health and wellness programs, day care services, health monitoring,
therapeutic and social activities, outreach and caregiver training. The provision
of these services is part of a continuum of quality, integrated care for caregivers
and care recipients. OR! Anuenue Hale's facilities and programs promote the
general welfare and quality of life of individuals with special needs.
Congress had reauthorized the Older Americans Act in November 2000 and
acknowledged the need to "support family caregiving activities and services."
"While family caregivers enhance the quality of life for their elderly family
members, the costs to caregivers can be significant. Family caregiving can also
be a source of considerable stress and subsequent detrimental results for both the

caregiver and the care receiver." Therefore, service interventions that meet the
caregiver's immediate needs can enhance the quality oflife for care recipients as
well as caregivers." This is according to recent reports on the needs ofthe aging
population and family caregivers from the Elderly Affairs Division.
Currently, the elderly population is growing at a dramatic rate. Between the
years 1990 to 2000, there was an increase of 28.5% in the popUlation, aged 65
years and older, in Hawaii alone. According to the United States Administration
on Aging (AOA), the rate of increase is anticipated to be higher between the years
2010 and 2030 when the baby boom generation reaches age 65.
By 2030, the 65 years and older group will be 20% of the population, which is
more than double of what it was in 2000. Minorities will make up 25.4% of the
elder population by 2030. Of the elderly population, approximately 7.4% will be
below the poverty level.
According to the 2007-2011 Four Year Area Plan on Aging report by the City and
County of Honolulu Elderly Affairs Division, only four (4) percent of the
estimated existing need for adult day care/day health services are being met by the
35 existing service providers in our state. The report further estimates "48,635
need daytime personal care in a supervised, congregate setting" such as an adult
day care / day health service (reference: page 157). In the same report, it was
estimated that of the 66,690 seniors, 60 years or over with chronic illnesses and/or
disability, only 25,007 or 37% ofthe estimated existing need is being met. The
report further estimates an unmet need of 41,953 requiring health maintenance
support services in the community. (reference: page 157)
Compounded with the impact of a slowed economy and constrained finance
market, services for the elderly and the disabled continue to be needed for the
benefit of, not just the target group, but also their family caregivers.
4. Describe the target population to be served; and
The target population includes the elderly, 62 years and above, severely disabled
adults, as well as the economically and socially disadvantaged in the community.
According to the Bureau of the Census definition, severely disabled adults include
those who: "(a) used a wheelchair, a cane, crutches, or a walker for 6 months or
longer, (b) are unable to perform or needed help to perform one or more of the
functional activities (seeing, hearing, speaking, liftingicarrying, using stairs,
walking, or grasping small objects), (c) are unable to perform or needed help to
perform one or more ADLs (Activity ofDaily Living), which includes getting
around inside the home, getting in or out of bed or a chair, bathing, dressing,
eating, and toileting, (d) are unable to perform or needed help to perform one or

more IADLs (Instrumental Activity of Daily Living), which includes going outside
the home, keeping track ofmoney and bills, preparing meals, doing light
housework, taking prescription medicines in the right amount at the right time,
and using the telephone, (e) had one or more specified conditions: mental
retardation or another developmental disability, or Alzheimer's disease, (f) had
any other mental or emotional condition that seriously interfered with everyday
activities, (g) had a condition that limited the ability to work around the house or
made it difficult to remain employed. Finally, persons who are under 65 years of
age and who are covered by Medicare or receive SSDI are considered to have a
severe disability. "
ORI Anuenue Hale's target groups are already presumed low to moderate income
by the federal government and have limited financial means to afford programs
and services that they need.
These groups are generally known to have chronic illnesses and will benefit from
health maintenance support services, for instance, to keep them living in the
community. Caregivers for these individuals often need respite services as a
relief from caregiving. Services that motivate their care recipients to socialize, to
keep mentally and physically fit, and to live a quality of life, are needed.
5. Describe the geographic coverage.
Utilization of the services will come primarily from residents in the facility's
neighboring communities of Central Oahu and the North Shore, and possibly parts
of the fastest growing community ofEwa (Campbell area). However, the agency
will not limit providing supportive services to anyone eligible.
The following are information obtained from the Center on the Family 2003
Community Profiles, which show the demographics of the agency's targeted areas
of services.
Target Areas to Total Population % of persons % of Persons % of Persons

7. Applicant ORI Anuenue Hale Inc.
A demographic analysis of the areas likely to be served by the agency, indicates
that their number of adults with disabilities tend to be higher than the state
average or within a percent difference from the state average of 17.7%. The
Honolulu county percentage of adults with disabilities is a percent less, at 16.8%.
In comparison to the above nwnbers, with the exception of Mililani, there are a
significant number of adults with disabilities in these areas.
There are also a significant nwnber of seniors with disability and living alone in
these areas. Historically, the communities surrounding OR! Anuenue Hale has
had high percentages of persons falling below the federally defined poverty level.
