Otherou will not have missed the Federal Government’s recent commitment to a significant wage increase for aged care workers. This is a major and long overdue step towards addressing current workforce shortages.

But there is much more to the so-called “Great Resignation”, and its potential antidote, than just pay. To this degree, providers and their partners have significant power to influence the future aged care workforce.

On-the-job training opportunities, workforce culture, CALD staff onboarding, recruitment strategy, EVPs, and digital technology adoption are just some of the areas the providers can influence to create a more attractive and nurturing work environment across residential, home, and community care.

The Aged Care Workforce Leaders Forum is an event that presents the most exciting workforce innovations being led by providers on the coalface of aged care, as well as the latest updates from government, academia, and the aged care vendor market. If you are in aged care and are passionate about reducing staff pressures, strengthening workforce culture, attracting highly capable and skilled talent, and providing the highest quality care to clients, then you cannot miss this Forum.
