MORE AGED CARE BEDS WELCOMED

AGEING Australia has welcomed the Albanese Government’s $115M investment to expand aged care beds, targeting key regions to ease hospital pressure. The funding supports faster delivery of new capacity, but leaders warn it falls short of demand. With Australia’s ageing population growing rapidly, far more beds are needed annually. The initiative is seen as a positive first step, but not a complete solution to the looming aged care shortfall.
