Room moves in residential aged care - what are the rules and can the MPIR change?

In this episode, we discuss room moves in residential aged care and the rules that apply. 

It is an issue that occurs in many different circumstances, such as where a resident wishes to change rooms, where a resident no longer needs a room in memory support or where a resident has increased needs that require an alternative room. 

A common misconception is that the maximum permissible interest rate (or 'MPIR' as it is often called) can never change for a resident.  However, a room move is one situation where the MPIR might change, depending on the circumstances.
