Experts raise concerns about staffing shortages, regulatory complexities, funding inadequacies, and the impact of the new ‘Support at Home’ program.

Adovocates argued that the current aged care bill will maintain the status quo unless sweeping changes are made.

The new tool could help address a serious problem in Australian nursing homes.

A new report has revealed that the disease is the second highest cause of death in the nation.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers said the reform will make the budget more sustainable.

A boost to aged care workers’ salaries is among the $2.2 billion in announcements made for the sector in the 2024 federal budget.

This follows a Fair Work Commission ruling on a union’s application to raise aged-care workers’ wages by 25 percent.

The Aged Care Taskforce suggested that the cost of the ballooning aged care sector should be self-funded by wealthier seniors.
