Unlocking the future of aged care: Why innovation must be at the heart of reform
In this guest post, Natasha Chadwick, CEO of NewDirection Care, discusses the transformative potential of the Aged Care Bill but warns that the lack of support for innovation risks perpetuating outdated practices. She argues that prioritising innovation through a defined framework is vital for improving quality of life and establishing a future-proof, person-centred aged care system. Expanding the Bill’s scope to make innovation a core principle could drive a modernised sector that meets the evolving needs of older Australians.
