Preparing for Upcoming Aged Care Workforce Regulations

Preparing for Upcoming Aged Care Workforce Regulations

July 22, 2025

The Aged Care sector is under growing scrutiny. With the introduction of reforms like mandatory care minutes and increased training, providers need to future-proof their workforce now.

1. Review Skill Gaps

Conduct training needs analyses to meet compliance obligations and improve care standards.

2. Plan for Mandatory Qualifications

Ensure workers hold, or are working towards, relevant certifications as new reforms phase in.

3. Align Rosters with New Standards

Changes in care minute requirements will impact how staff are scheduled and utilised.

4. Communicate with Staff

Transparency about upcoming changes builds trust and eases transitions.
