Aged care laws in Australia have now changed. The new Aged Care Act 2024 and Aged Care Rules 2025 now apply. While we complete updating of our website, including draft guidance and other materials, to align with the new laws, providers are advised to refer to the new Act and Rules for any required clarification of their obligations and legal responsibilities. Thank you for your patience.

Investment Standard fact sheet for providers

Publication date

The fact sheet is a quick reference guide that explains what you need to do to meet the Investment Standard. It includes the key requirements, who they apply to and a checklist.

Disclaimer: The new Aged Care Act 2024 (new Aged Care Act) will start from 1 November 2025. It replaces existing aged care legislation. The Aged Care Rules 2025 will support the new Aged Care Act. They’ll also provide more information on how the new Aged Care Act will work.

We’re publishing this resource in draft to help providers prepare for the new Aged Care Act. We’ll update this draft content after new Aged Care Act and Aged Care Rules start.
