Join us for an online tour of the Responsible Persons Toolkit

Learn how this practical toolkit can help your organisation understand and manage responsible person obligations under the Aged Care Act 2024.

Created for in-home aged care providers, the toolkit includes plain-language guides, templates, checklists and videos to support governance, compliance and oversight.

Why the toolkit is important

The Aged Care Act 2024 introduces new obligations for registered aged care providers, including the designation of responsible persons.

These reforms aim to strengthen governance, clarify accountability and improve the quality and safety of funded aged care.

This webinar will walk you through the toolkit and show you how it can support your organisation to respond to these changes with confidence.

About the toolkit
