Published 9th March 2021

The Australian Government welcomes the Final Report from the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, which has today been tabled in Parliament.

The Royal Commission’s Final Report recognises the immense effort of the aged care sector and also brings the challenges of aged care services into clear focus. The Australian Government commits to responding to the Royal Commission Final Report recommendations by 31 May 2021.

The response to the Royal Commission final report will be driven by the principle of respect and care, and through the lens of five broad pillars:

• Home Care
• Residential aged care quality and safety
• Residential aged care services and sustainability
• Workforce
• Governance.
