We have extended the public consultation period for the strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards draft guidance documents from 30 April to 19 May 2024.

We are consulting on our draft guidance resources to help providers, aged care workers and other stakeholders understand the strengthened Quality Standards and their roles and responsibilities in meeting them.

The strengthened Quality Standards will come into effect in line with the commencement of the new Aged Care Act.

Your insights will help us ensure that our resources will support the delivery of quality, person-centred aged care. We will soon also be releasing draft guidance resources for older people, their families, and advocates.

Share your feedback by midday AEST, 19 May 2024.
