PART OF THE NATIONAL AGED CARE CONVENTION
With a new Aged Care Act coming into place in 2024, and the first tranche of the new Support at Home Program rolling out - Australian Home Care providers are encountering extraordinary challenges in fortifying their quality assurance, safety, and risk management frameworks to meet the stringent compliance and operational demands introduced by these significant regulatory reforms.
For Australia to elevate its Home Care services to a globally recognised standard of safety and quality, it is imperative to embrace cutting-edge systems and solutions for quality, safety, and risk management. These innovations are essential in enhancing client care, elevating quality standards, alleviating the strain on the workforce, ensuring adherence to compliance mandates, and reinforcing governance structures.
