The new Aged Care Act will commence on 1 November 2025, bringing a renewed focus on quality, transparency, and accountability across Australia’s aged care sector.

For aged care providers, this means ensuring every aspect of service delivery — from staffing and data reporting to compliance oversight — aligns with updated legislative standards.

At Brightstar Nursing Australia, we make this transition simple. As your trusted associate provider, we ensure that every nurse and care professional we deploy is fully compliant, trained, and ready to deliver care that meets both your organisational standards and the requirements of the new Act.

Understanding the New Aged Care Act

The new legislation introduces stronger expectations for:

• Workforce compliance and training
• Transparent data reporting and governance
• Safety, quality, and risk management
• Accountability of agency and contract staff

These reforms are designed to improve resident care outcomes and rebuild trust in the aged care system. However, meeting these obligations can place added pressure on providers — particularly when managing agency or contract staff.

That’s where Brightstar Nursing Australia can help.

How Brightstar Nursing Australia Helps Aged Care Homes Stay Compliant

1. Complete Compliance Management

We handle all compliance processes — from verifying nurse credentials and registrations to ensuring all training, immunisations, and police checks are up to date. You’ll receive full documentation support to demonstrate compliance with confidence.

2. Streamlined Data Reporting

Our digital reporting systems are aligned with the new Aged Care Quality Standards. We help you capture accurate workforce data, performance metrics, and readiness reports — simplifying your compliance obligations under the new Act.

3. Contractor Induction Platform

Before any nurse is placed in your facility, they complete our Induction Platform, which includes:

• Mandatory compliance and aged care training
• Workplace health and safety protocols
• Infection control and resident care standards
• Code of conduct and professional expectations

This ensures every Brightstar professional arrives fully prepared, compliant, and care-ready.

4. Reliable, Qualified Workforce Support

We provide experienced nurses and care professionals who uphold the highest standards of compassion and clinical care. Every staff member undergoes screening, orientation, and ongoing support to deliver exceptional care outcomes for your residents.
