Event by external provider

Hosted by Primary Health Tasmania

The new strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards, including a new focus on clinical care and food/nutrition, will take effect from 1 November 2025 under the new Aged Care Act. While the standards are designed for aged care providers and their staff, GPs are integral to delivering high-quality care to older people, making an understanding of the new requirements, particularly regarding clinical care, crucial for providing effective and person-centred services.

Learning outcomes:

  • Identify changes to the new Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards.
  • Understand the role GPs play in the new Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards.
  • Demonstrate how to apply the new Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards in practice.

Target audience: GPs and general practice staff

Murray PHN acknowledges its catchment crosses over many unceded First Nations Countries, following the Dhelkunya Yaluk (Healing River).

We pay our respects and give thanks to the Ancestors, Elders and Young people for their nurturing, protection and caregiving of these sacred lands and waterways, acknowledging their continuing cultural, spiritual and educational practices.

We are grateful for the sharing of Country and the renewal that Country gives us. We acknowledge and express our sorrow that this sharing has come at a personal, spiritual and cultural cost to the wellbeing of First Nations peoples. We commit to addressing the injustices of colonisation across our catchment, and to listening to the wisdom of First Nations communities who hold the knowledge to enable healing. We extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
