The Australian Government’s upcoming Aged Care Reform Act (commencing November 2025) is set to reshape how care is delivered and funded for older Australians. At Ausmed Health, we’re committed to helping aged care providers, home care agencies, and families navigate these changes with confidence.
What’s Changing?
The reforms aim to place older Australians at the centre of care, focusing on:
- Greater choice and control for people receiving care.
- Better alignment between in-home support and assistive technology (AT).
- Improved quality and safety standards for providers.
- Clearer funding streams, replacing fragmented systems.
For providers, this means a shift towards integrated and person-centred models of care with a strong emphasis on practical support through equipment and consumables.
Where Ausmed Health Fits In
As a trusted NDIS and healthcare supplier, Ausmed Health is uniquely positioned to support aged care agencies and families through this transition. Our range of:
-
Continence care products
- Living and mobility aids (walkers, lift recliners, commodes, bathroom aids)
- Beds & Bedroom Support (electrical adjustable beds, self help poles and bed rails)
-
Wound and skin care essentials
-
Masks and infection control supplies
Aligns directly with the reform’s focus on maintaining independence, safety, and dignity at home.
Why This Matters to Providers
The reforms introduce stronger expectations that assistive technology and home modifications (AT–HM) are not “add-ons” but core enablers of independence. That’s where Ausmed Health can help, by providing reliable, ethical, and locally supported supply chains for the items older Australians will increasingly rely on.
