Happy New Year from all of us at Leigh Place Aged Care!
As we step into 2025, we are focused on the opportunities ahead to strengthen and innovate within the aged care sector.
This year, we will continue to enhance our services through targeted wellness programs, diverse activities and events, resident-led initiatives, and innovative care models. These efforts aim to meet the evolving needs of residents while supporting families, staff, and stakeholders.
A significant milestone for 2025 is the introduction of the new Aged Care Act and Strengthened Standards, which represent a pivotal step in Australia’s aged care reform agenda. These changes are designed to improve care quality, increase transparency, and uphold the dignity and rights of every individual in aged care.
At Leigh Place, we fully support this reform journey and are committed to aligning with best practices. This includes:
- Enhanced Care Standards: Continuously refining our practices to meet and exceed new benchmarks.
- Staff Training and Development: Investing in our team to ensure they have the skills and knowledge required to deliver exceptional care.
- Person-Centred Approaches: Empowering residents through choice, engagement, and a safe, supportive environment.
The reform agenda brings significant benefits, including elevated care standards, better support for families, and opportunities to adopt innovative solutions. These changes pave the way for a more dynamic and responsive aged care system that prioritises the needs and preferences of its community.
Leigh Place is proud to contribute to this transformative period for aged care in Australia. Our focus remains on delivering meaningful outcomes for residents and fostering a community where everyone feels respected and valued.
Here’s to a productive and impactful 2025, filled with progress, collaboration, and shared success!
