Supporting and caring for older people under the new Aged Care Act

At Alfred Health, we’re committed to providing safe, respectful, and person-centred care for older people.

From 1 November 2025, the new Aged Care Act 2024 will come into effect.

This new law strengthens your rights, improves quality and safety, and ensures that all aged care providers, including Alfred Health, are open and accountable.

This page provides key information, useful links, and answers to common questions for people receiving Commonwealth-funded aged care through Alfred Health.
