I take great pleasure writing this report for 2017/18 on behalf of the Board of East Coast Accessibility Experts. This year has been a time of signification change with the continuing roll out of the NDIS, continuation of My Aged Care changes, IT and telephone systems.
The Board operates from a governance and values framework and consists of dedicated voluntary skilled professionals. This year, the Board has ensured that robust mechanisms are in place and reported on throughout the organisation to fulfil their obligations in ensuring the organisation is compliant, lawful, and financially

In particular, the Board has supported the organisation’s investment in information technology to enhance productivity and streamlining processes including our new website and key changes to our operational system. We have undertaken a review and update of our strategic plan and associated processes to help guide us into the future
As the Chairperson, I extend my sincere appreciation to the members of our Board who voluntarily and generously give of their time and expertise.

At the end of each annual reporting period, the depreciation method, useful life and residual value of each assetis reviewed. Any revisions are accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate.
When an assets is disposed, the gain or loss is calculated by comparing proceeds received with its carryingamount and is taken to profit or loss.
(h) Financial instruments
Financial instruments are recognised initially using trade date accounting, i.e. on the date that Associationbecomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
On initial recognition, all financial instruments are measured at fair value plus transaction costs (except forinstruments measured at fair value through profit or loss where transaction costs are expensed as incurred).
Financial Assets
Financial assets are divided into the following categories which are described in detail below:
loans and receivables;
Financial assets are assigned to the different categories on initial recognition, depending on the characteristicsof the instrument and its purpose. A financial instrument’s category is relevant to the way it is measured andwhether any resulting income and expenses are recognised in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income.
All income and expenses relating to financial assets are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and othercomprehensive income in the ‘finance income’ or ‘finance costs’ line item respectively.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are notquoted in an active market. They arise principally through the provision of goods and services to customers butalso incorporate other types of contractual monetary assets.

Notes to the Financial StatementsFor the Year Ended 30 June 2018
1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
After initial recognition these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provisionfor impairment. Any change in their value is recognised in profit or loss.
The Association’s trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
Significant receivables are considered for impairment on an individual asset basis when they are past due atthe reporting date or when objective evidence is received that a specific counterparty will default.
The amount of the impairment is the difference between the net carrying amount and the present value of thefuture expected cash flows associated with the impaired receivable.
For trade receivables, impairment provisions are recorded in a separate allowance account with the loss beingrecognised in profit or loss. When confirmation has been received that the amount is not collectable, the grosscarrying value of the asset is written off against the associated impairment provision.
In some circumstances, the Association renegotiates repayment terms with customers which may lead tochanges in the timing of the payments, the Association does not necessarily consider the balance to beimpaired, however assessment is made on a case-by-case basis.
(i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments which arereadily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Bank overdrafts also form part of cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows and arepresented within current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
(j) Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leaveexpected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paidwhen the liabilities are settled.
Other long-term employee benefits
The liability for annual leave and long service leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reportingdate are measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of servicesprovided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given toexpected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expectedfuture payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on national government bonds withterms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Employee benefits are presented as current liabilities in the statement of financial position if the Associationdoes not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reportingdate regardless of the classification of the liability for measurement purposes under AASB 119.

Depreciation
The depreciable amount of all fixed assets including buildings and capitalised leased assets, is depreciated ona reducing balance basis over the asset's useful life commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use.Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or theestimated useful lives of the improvements.
The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable asset are shown below:
Fixed asset class Depreciation rate
Buildings 4%
Plant and Equipment 2 - 40%

2 Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The committee members make estimates and judgements during the preparation of these financial statementsregarding assumptions about current and future events affecting transactions and balances. These estimates andjudgements are based on the best information available at the time of preparing the financial statements, however asadditional information is known then the actual results may differ from the estimates. The significant estimates andjudgements made have been described below.
Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets
The association assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangibleassets at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the association and to the particular asset that maylead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involvesfair value less costs of disposal or value-in-use calculations, which incorporate a number of key estimates andassumptions.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with the AustralianCharities and Not-for-profits Commission Act 2012, the Associations Incorporation Act (NSW) 2009 and AssociationsIncorporation Regulation (NSW) 2010, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable thepreparation of the financial report is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, management is responsible for assessing the the Association's ability to continue as agoing concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accountingunless management either intends to liquidate the Association or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but todo so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Association's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from materialmisstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonableassurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the AustralianAuditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or errorand are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence theeconomic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintainprofessional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design
and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher
than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations,
or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Association’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by the management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on
the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast
significant doubt on the Association’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial
reporter, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence
obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Association to
cease to continue as a going concern.

The lesson for the organisation is to assist our elders to access MAC and our service types, making it as streamline as possible.
Making the process of minor and/or complex modification as streamline as possible and sign off on contractor works with a phone call and/or consumer feedback form.
• Ensure timely closure on all jobs bigand small
Cost of work and financially disadvantaged
• Consider contractor fees and clientcontribution passed on to financially disadvantaged
Ensure all work on Service Agreement/contract is completed.
Impact ReportThere is widespread international evidence of the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of low level intervention programmes such as the Home and Community Care (HACC) / Commonwealth Home Support (CHSP) programme, which enable older people to stay in their homes for longer.
To meet the needs of our elders and younger people with disabilities, including their carers, we provide some 1100 - 1500 modification and maintenance episodes for our elders, considerably fewer for our younger people with disabilities due to budget constraints and the wait for NDIS plans to be implemented.
Our Modification prescriptions and designs are to meet individual needs, achieving increased independence, freedom and safety, enabling you to live safely and independently at home and in your community the way you choose. Some 57 hours of at- home assessments were completed during the year by Occupational Therapists clearly stating a demand for modification with waitlists in health.
Post fall is a common pathway of, fear of falling, reduced activity, de-conditioning, leading to an increase risk of falls.
Our outcomes for recipients of home modification, maintenance, and at home assessments, is enabling and wellness. Prevention of falls, reducing incidents of hospital admissions and any future falls risks.

East Coast Accessibility Experts has provided many complex modifications for residents of Limetree Village, Pacific Highway, Coffs Harbour, an indication the mobile home style of retirement is not necessarily meeting the functional needs of residents as they age in place.
Location of over 55 year olds are Woolgoolga, Arrawarra, Mullaway and Safety Beach share 34 – 36%, Coffs Urban 29 – 34%; Sawtell, Toormina, East Boambee, Moonee, Sapphire, Red Rock and Corindi share 22 – 29%; Sandy Beach, Emerald Beach share 16-22%; Bonville, West Boambee, Ulong, Coramba, Nana Glen and Bucca share 14-17%.1
The population of the Mid North Coast Region, as well as the Coffs Harbour LGA, is ageing more rapidly than in the State as a whole, reflecting its continued popularity as a destination for retirees. In terms of numbers Hastings, Coffs Harbour and Taree will have the most aged people by 2026, consequently likely to experience greater pressures on aged care facilities and services than the State as a whole. The anticipated higher concentrations of older residents will have implications for the provision of government services (eg health services) for these and surrounding communities.
Service DeliveryEast Coast Accessibility Experts is currently funded to provide minor and major modifications, low level maintenance, lawn mowing/gardening and Allied Health - Occupational Therapist services. The emphasis is on safety, accessibility, preventing accidents and adaptation to changing circumstances, continuing to embrace the wellness, re ablement and restorative models of service delivery.
Modification work is accepted on the recommendations and clinical prescriptions of our professional partners, Occupational Therapists, major work includes a joint home visit with Builder to establish structural potential for recommendations made, achieving best outcomes for client and carer. From 1 July 2015 all referrals come through the MyAgedCare (MAC) service provider portal

‘The costs of inaccessible housing are wide-ranging and significant. They include: the costs of residential care that could otherwise be avoided; levels of social care that could be reduced or removed; impacts on independent living, employment and social life; falls and other accidents which can be life-changing or fatal; mental health impacts; impacts on general health; avoidable hospital admissions; increased stays in hospital due to lack of accessible housing to return to (‘bed-blocking’), etc’

Recurrent funding for under 65/50’s is unable to meet demand in Minor Modification, Low Level Maintenance, including lawn mowing and Allied Health for occupational therapy at home assessments. All programs are currently underfunded and the service is now creating wait lists for all projects, together with a review of client contributions to projects. The funding provided for services to people with disabilities has been reduced over the last 12 months to accommodate the roll out of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). East Coast Accessibility Experts is a registered provider for the NDIS and no longer receives recurrent funding to provide service subsidy for younger people with disabilities.
Recurrent funding for over 65/50’s is now meeting demand in Low Level Maintenance, including lawn mowing, and yet demand for Allied Health for occupational therapy at home assessments and home modification demand is higher than current funding allocations.
The biggest drawer for the allied health budget is Hastings, Coffs Harbour and Great Lakes, in line with the growth areas identified in statistical data. The administration of both lawn mowing and allied health projects is time consuming in relation to reportable responsibilities to funding bodies.
The Voucher system has been introduced for lawn mowing service, providing clients with choice of contractor from a preferred list of providers. Clients are provided with abookletof20vouchersvalue$25eachwith the balance for service to be paid directly to contractor.
This model has increased capacity for an additional 112 clients who now receive the lawn mowing service.

Mid North Coast, where resources allow.
This project has monitored the regional funds and ensures quality home modification work has been performed on its behalf. Occupational Therapists provide sign off at completion of work, ensuring compliance with Occupational Therapist recommendation and clinical prescription.
This project has ensured the equitable distribution of funds across the Mid North Coast, Gloucester in the South to Coffs Harbour in the North, meeting client needs, and in accordance with ABS population statistics, ranking work according to its relative priority based on client need and anticipated outcome.
This project has demonstrated innovation and flexibility in the role as area fund-holder and provided an effective and efficient model of service delivery.’
Under the Commonwealth Home Support Program modification has been capped at $10,000 service subsidy. This caphas reduced the demand for complex modification for the over 65/50’s. The review process will continue for the under 65/50’s until such time as the roll out of the NDIS in 2016 and 2017 for this region.
‘The service will act as the Area Fund-holder, for Mid North Coast CHSP and FACS funded Home Modification & Maintenance Services, contracting to carry out home modification work greater than or equal to $5,000 ($7,500 if localservice can resource) and are less than or equal to $20,000 ($25,000 ifMidNorthCoast budget can resource).
East Coast Accessibility Experts continues to coordinate the suitably skilled executive engaged specifically to review all applications applying for funding from the Mid North Coast budget. The review panel has been made up of representatives from each Level 1 service, Occupational Therapists, Community Members and consumer representation, where possible.
This project has long established links with all Home Modification and Maintenance Services and Department of Health staff and private providers, in particular, Occupational Therapists, to facilitate timely and appropriate home modifications for target group.
This project has coordinated the collection of job progress payments, collection of client contributions, management of debtors and the writing off of any bad debts.
This project has coordinated contractual arrangements with private providers for modification work not undertaken by local Home Modification and Maintenance Services. The project has engaged neighbouring local services to carry out work outside their local area and within

Coffs Harbour Home Modification & Maintenance Service Incorporated t/a East Coast Accessibility Experts Annual Report 2017-2018
Staff Changes during the Year: Michelle Egan joined us this year at Reception and Administration and has worked her way around all systems quickly and efficiently, a bonus to our operations team.
Our Construction team continue to hold their toolbox talks, and operational staff have monthly meetings, both feeding into our monthly solution focused team meetings. These meetings also include training, goal setting and workplace health and safety.
Performance Reviews have been carried out during the year with all team members, providing updates of job descriptions, KeyPerformance Indicators,MotivationalPlans, Training and Development Plans.
All team members took the time to write their skill mapping plans in line with key performance indicators and the organisational strategic directions. This exercise allows the Board to establish where there may be gaps in skills with the ongoing direction of organisation and the many changes to service systems in the Aged Care and Disability environment with My Aged Care (MAC), National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
I look forward to the challenges for East Coast Accessibility Experts for 2019 and working with a committed, conscientious team and a Board of Management focussing on Good Governance and Strategic direction.
Yours in Home Mods

Coffs Harbour Home Modification & Maintenance Service Incorporated t/a East Coast Accessibility Experts Annual Report 2017-2018
Builders ReportThe introduction of the National D i s a b i l i t y Scheme in July 2017 is beginning to impact significantly on the nature of work conducted by the Building Team; with a large
number of complex quotations requested for local people with a disability.
During 2018, in addition to minor modifications and maintenance works; the Building Team completed a number of major modification projects including access (ramps, easy-steps and paths), an accessible kitchen, and bathroom modifications. This represents a decrease from previous years due to the changes to the funding of major modification by panel review, with the introduction of the$10,000contributioncapby fundingbodies for clients over 65 years of age.
The decrease in major modifications has however been balanced in part by a large number of requests for minor modifications from Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) clients, package provider clients and Home and Community Care clients.
The Building Team completed a full cost recovery project of a bathroom modification for a NDIS client, with another two NDIS funded bathroom modifications approved, awaiting commencement.
As Works Supervisor, I am responsible for co-ordinating the scheduled projects for the organisation, in terms of both materials and staffing requirements. Crucial to this role is ongoing liaison with the clients and occupational therapists. I am supported in my role by my staff Daniel Curzon, carpenter and Geoff Rogers, Handyman. As a team, we have introduced regular blood donations to support the crucial work undertaken by the Red Cross Blood Service.
The service has also continued to employ Charles Reid as a contracted Project Manager as required, in addition to Colin Makinson continuing to support the team as contracted builder and Dan Stewart as a contracted carpenter.
In the workshop, the Service has purchased new LED lights to improve cost efficiency and lighting standards within the workshop area. A new display kitchen has also been installed within the lunch room, as an upgrade of the old aged kitchen area; and to improve access and safety for all staff members.

Coffs Harbour Home Modification & Maintenance Service Incorporated t/a East Coast Accessibility Experts Annual Report 2017-2018
In late 2016, the Service reassessed the structure of the lawn mowing operations and transitioned to a contractor based model, whereby clients were provided with a booklet of vouchers to be used across the year towards the cost of a lawn service with six approved contractors. Client surveys indicate that the majority of the clients remain very happy with this system as it provides them with greater flexibility to engage their chosen contractors as required. This area of the service has continued to grow in 2018.
I have continued to attend the regional meetings of the North Coast Region Home Modification and Maintenance services.
Works Supervisor ReportAGM 29 October 2018
These meetings provide an important opportunity for the demonstration of new building products and techniques, the interaction of ideas between our colleagues, as well as establishing valuable links between our services and those of other surrounding districts.
During 2018, Daniel Curzon commenced his Building Diploma, towards achieving a builder’s licence.
The team continues to work well as a cohesive group. Each of our team members’ work in a professional and caring manner that reflects the high standards of our service
