Major change is underway for Australia’s home care sector. The last few months alone has seen the introduction of a Code of Conduct for workers, the expansion of the Serious Incident Response Scheme to include the home care sector, and a cap placed on both care management and package management fees in the Home Care Packages program.
Even bigger changes are coming. There will be a new Aged Care Act – and from July 2024 – a new regulatory framework, and a streamlined in-home care program. The Aged Care Quality Standards are also being revised. And while consultation continues this month, the slated start of the transition to this new in-home program – June 2023 – is only months away.
Are you ready? According to the Department of Health and Aged Care’s stakeholder survey late last year, only a quarter of home care providers were well aware of the reforms on their doorstep. Be better prepared this time and join the Australian Ageing Agenda for a DEEP DIVE INTO HOME CARE REFORM.
Australian Ageing Agenda is proud to host this webinar featuring representatives from leading organisations working with providers on the frontline. Join for a lively discussion on the compliance, governance, workforce, and technology considerations you need to know.
