The Albanese Government continues to deliver on our commitment to improve care for people living in aged care homes. From today, aged care homes must deliver a sector average of 200 care minutes per resident per day, including 40 minutes of registered nurse care. This means older Australians in aged care homes have better access to personal and clinical care delivered by registered nurses, enrolled nurses, personal care workers and assistants in nursing. This comes following the introduction of the 24/7 registered nursing responsibility on 1 July 2023, with a registered nurse now on-site and on duty 98.
