‘Just in time’ professional development customised for provider needs

No matter how you approach reform – with a ‘growth mindset’ or through the lens of ‘enforced change’ – the current aged care reform agenda can feel like an impossible task, particularly in the face of workforce shortages.

Governance requirements have been changing in the aged care sector for some time, with key changes introduced in 2022 and 2023 to strengthen the role of governing bodies in order to provide better care for consumers of aged care services.

Health and aged care interface the budget winner

Some might say the latest federal budget doesn’t go far enough, particularly when it comes to holistic measures to support health and wellbeing in older people – but when you take a closer look, the boost to the health and aged care interface presents significant benefits.

A vision for aged care in Australia

In May I had the pleasure of attending the World Ageing Festival in Singapore, where Australian providers showed they are truly leading the way in innovation in aged care. Hosted by Ageing Asia, this global ageing event gathered more than 5,000 participants, 100 notable speakers and 100 diverse exhibitors. It united representatives from 50 countries to explore the latest innovations and industry showcases.

It’s time to amplify our collective voice

With winter now upon us, the first half of 2024 has been exceptionally busy for sector leaders as they absorbed further change. While the introduction of the new Aged Care Act has been delayed, further details and discussions around its practical implementation will be the dominant discourse.

Supporting veterans on Anzac Day and every day

Anzac Day is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices our veterans have made for our freedom – both past and present. As we honour these brave individuals, we are reminded of the solemn reality of war and the profound impact it has on people and communities during times of conflict and beyond.

This year has begun as an immensely busy period for our sector and for Aged & Community Care Providers Association (ACCPA), and in the coming months we will once again be tested as we navigate the impacts of major aged care legislative change.
