The New Aged Care Act begun on 1 November – Here’s how we’re supporting Aged Care Providers.
Ensuring quality, compliance and resident wellbeing under the new Aged Care Act.
From 1 November 2025, the Australian Government introduces the Aged Care Act 2024 and a new funding model for Residential Aged Care. We know that the lead up has required significant preparation and effort. These reforms are designed to strengthen the rights of older Australians, deliver more transparent care arrangements and align funding with individual needs. While these changes will benefit residents, they also introduce new compliance expectations and operational challenges for Aged Care Providers.
You have been working tirelessly to be ready and we want to you know that we are here to support you any way that we can.
