Strategic Technology - Navigating the Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards
The Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards, effective 1 July 2025, represent a significant shift for aged care providers. Successfully navigating these changes requires more than policy compliance, with technical systems in a key position to drive a successful transition.
The federal government’s upcoming IT reform grants provide a unique chance to act now and strengthen technical readiness. The HAMR Systems Readiness Review offers tailored support to optimise and connect your systems, establish dynamic monitoring and reporting, and support your technical transition into the Strengthened Standards.

Are your clinical systems optimised?
Clinical systems are critical to compliance, yet suboptimal workflows, charts and worklog/actions create inefficiencies, policy and procedure confusion, and documentation gaps. Providers need to be reviewing their systems to ensure they intuitively guide their teams to meet the Strengthened Standards and ultimately deliver optimal care. Intuitive tools—such as forms that prepopulate data or systems designed with compliance in mind—are essential for success.
Are your systems connected and aligned?
Disjointed systems result in broken clinical workflows and disconnected data sets. Integrating systems data, policy, and workflow reduce errors, save time, and foster better care.
Do you have a top-down view?
Clear oversight of care and operational performance is crucial for proactive management and audit readiness. However, many providers struggle with manual data extraction and processing, which limits their ability to stay ahead of issues. Interoperable systems that enable seamless data extraction and meaningful reporting empower teams to proactively identify and resolve issues as they arise—ensuring visibility and readiness every day.
