The new Aged Care Act is putting older people’s rights at the centre of aged care.

From 1 November 2025, it gives older people the right to:

· make their own decisions and have them respected

· be supported to help them make decisions

· feel safe and connected with their community.

The new aged care system will be stronger, safer and fairer for you.
