The Aged Care Act 2024 comes into effect in November 2025, bringing with it new digital, data and compliance requirements for Aged Care Providers.

To help your organisation prepare, we’ve shared this official Digital Readiness Checklist from the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing. It’s a practical, step-by-step guide to ensure your systems, processes and people are ready for the transition.

Why this matters for Aged Care Providers

• Stay compliant: align your digital systems with the new Aged Care Act requirements.
• Protect funding and operations: ensure continuity of claims and access to government portals such as GPMS and My Aged Care.
• Support your team: identify where training and role updates are needed ahead of time.
• Avoid last-minute disruption: act now to prevent costly, rushed upgrades in late 2025.

How Diamond IT can help

While the checklist is a great starting point, many Aged Care Providers need tailored support to implement these requirements effectively. Our team specialises in:

• Cyber security and compliance for aged care providers.
• IT strategy aligned with the Aged Care Quality Standards.
• Governance, risk, and compliance frameworks (ISO 27001, Essential Eight, DISP).
• Managed IT and security services to protect sensitive resident data.

Talk to us today about how we can help you prepare for the Aged Care Act and strengthen your digital resilience.
