Join Camms at the Upcoming Aged Care Quality, Safety & Risk Forum!

With the new Aged Care Act, the Aged Care Regulatory Model, and strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards set to come into effect in July 2025, aged care providers across Australia are facing unparalleled challenges in areas such as quality assurance, safety, and risk management. They must ensure their measures are robust enough to meet the strict compliance and operational requirements outlined in the new regulatory reforms.

For Australia to successfully develop and advance its aged care sector and provide world-leading safe, quality care services, its aged care providers must adopt innovative quality, safety, and risk systems and solutions aimed at improving patient care and quality standards, reducing workforce burdens, meeting quality & compliance requirements, and strengthening governance.

Part of the National Aged Care Convention, the Aged Care Quality, Safety & Risk Forum will bring together over 400 leaders in the sector, and 75+ speakers to draw on their experience and insights to help shape this year’s agenda and speak at the event. The event’s theme will be Enhancing Lives: Advancing Quality, Compliance, and Risk Management in Aged Care.
