Organisations or persons must complete the Audit Evidence Collection Tool (AECT) – Registration as part of the initial registration audit. This is compulsory for organisations or persons applying for registration in categories 4, 5 and 6 from 1 July 2025.
The registration audit helps us to understand if the organisation or person can conform with the related strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards.
We use this tool to collect evidence about:
- the systems and processes you will establish
- how you will deliver high-quality care to older people.
DISCLAIMER
The new Aged Care Act will commence from 1 November 2025 and replaces existing aged care legislation. The Aged Care Rules 2025 will support the new Aged Care Act and provide further information on how the Act will work.
We are publishing this resource in draft form to assist providers to prepare for the new Act. This content remains draft and will be updated after the Aged Care Rules come into force.
