An Orwellian nightmare? – on-demand recording

1 CPD Unit  On-demand recording


 

This session was recorded on 29 August 2025 as part of the Specialist Accreditation Conference 2025.

The Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety released its Final Report in March 2021. Recommendation 1 (of 148 Recommendations) states: ‘The Aged Care Act 1997 (Cth) should be replaced with a new Act to come into force by no later than 1 July 2023. The new Act, accompanied by a set of Rules, is currently due to come into effect on 1 July 2025.’ One of the objects of the legislation is to ‘… provide a system of aged care based on a universal right to high quality, safe and timely support and care…’ (Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety Final Report March 2021, Recommendation 1 (3) (a)). This presentation will critique the Act and Rules and highlight the potential dangers and confusion inherent in the legislation.
