Question: What type of care are given to the aged during this pandemic?

Answer passage (source: Australia):
page_title: Providing aged care services during COVID-19
section_headers: Identifying symptoms
section_content: Monitor the health of people in your care and watch out for symptoms of
COVID-19. Keep in mind:

older people may not always have a fever
older people may also have increased confusion, worsening chronic conditions of the lungs, or loss of appetite

Be especially alert when caring for people with dementia or a cognitive
impairment. They may not be able to tell you about potential symptoms or
express pain or discomfort.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Answer is for providers in nursing homes or other types of facilities and does not answer the requester's query satisfactorily.
This only gives information about what to watch for when caring for the elderly.

page_title: Providing aged care services during COVID-19
section_headers: Managing COVID-19 in residential aged care
section_content: Residential aged care facilities are legally responsible for infection
prevention and control under the Aged Care Act 1997 and the Aged Care Quality
Standards.
You must:

manage visitor and entry restrictions, including for new and returning residents
monitor the health of your staff
prevent and control infections
put up signs and remind visitors of the steps they need to take to help protect residents, including their flu vaccination
ensure all visitors comply with the Aged Care Visitor Access Code
manage any COVID-19 outbreaks and follow the COVID-19 outbreak guidelines

For more advice, read our COVID-19 factsheet for residential aged care
workers.
Residents and their families and carers can read our COVID-19 advice for
people in aged care facilities.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
Since the requester didn't specify what they meant by "type of care" to be given to the aged this could work if we assume that most aged people are in residential aged care facilities.
This gives a detailed list of actions being taken to care for the elderly, as well as links to all the guidelines and fact sheets necessary.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
There is information about elder care and links in the article, but it is more broadly about issues the elderly face.
While the answer is geared more towards people who already work with the needy or infirm the requester could some good information or use out of the first two links and ignore the rest of the verbiage supplied here.
